MOREH, Oak of

Abraham’s first recorded stopping place upon entering Palestine after leaving Mesopotamia. Here he built an altar to God (Gn 12:6). Later, Moses mentioned this place as a geographical landmark to identify the whereabouts of Mt Gerizim and Mt Ebal (Dt 11:30). The KJB improperly reads “plain” of Moreh. The oak of Moreh was located near Shechem.
