# Nebo (H5015A): A Biblical Place Name Nebo is a proper noun appearing seven times in the Hebrew Bible, designating a specific geographical location rather than a common word with variable meanings. As a place name, it functions as a fixed reference point in biblical geography and narrative, similar to how modern place names operate in contemporary texts. The limited occurrence of Nebo (seven instances) suggests it held particular significance within certain biblical accounts or traditions, likely appearing in narratives, genealogies, or geographical descriptions concentrated in specific biblical books. Without additional context data showing which books contain these occurrences, we can note only that the name's repeated appearance indicates it was important enough to be preserved and referenced multiple times in the scriptural record. As a proper noun, Nebo's primary function was to identify and locate people, events, or religious significance to a particular place known by this name. The name itself appears to have maintained consistent reference across its biblical occurrences, serving as a geographical marker rather than a word whose meaning shifted or developed over time.
