The Korean Revised Version gives the same name in both verses (WEB “the oak of Moreh” and “the oaks of Moreh”), and neither text says whether they are one place. This collection cites only Deuteronomy 11:29–32 for the oaks of Moreh and does not decide whether the oak of Genesis 12:6 is the same place.
