Context: • Nun is a significant figure in the Hebrew Bible, primarily known as the father of Joshua, who led the Israelites into the Promised Land after the death of Moses. Nun is mentioned in several passages, often in genealogical contexts, to establish Joshua's lineage. For example, in Exodus 33:11, it is stated, "The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent." This highlights the close relationship between Moses and Joshua, with Nun being a key identifier of Joshua's heritage.
