River

An event recorded in Gen. 7 and 8 · Water · Euphrates

Where the name appears

Events told in passages that name River, and how many of their verses do. That is not the same as saying they happened here: a place can be named as a landmark, as somewhere being travelled to, or as the subject of a prophecy.

A dot is a moment; a bar is something that lasted, drawn to its length. The fainter the mark, the fewer verses name the place.

Easton’s Bible Dictionary

An event recorded in Gen. 7 and 8. In Josh. 24:2, 3, 14, 15, the word “flood” (R.V., “river”) means the river Euphrates. In Ps. 66:6, this word refers to the river Jordan.
