Rissah

Rissah (ris's [Heb. rissd-' dew'])[1] is one of the places or stations of the Exodus. These are the places the Sons of Israel or Israelites were said to have stopped at during the Exodus presented in a sequence which gives the route.

Rissah comes after Libnah, the white land in the west. Libna was a Libyan emporia on the coast of Palestine north of Gaza.

gollark: I mean, if you end up in horrible health in the later bits, yes, but otherwise it seems pretty great.
gollark: ... *seriously*?
gollark: anarchoprimitivism still bad.
