    What happens here

    Atlas's own reading, written from this chapter and nothing else, and published only once a person has approved it. Each scene names the verses it covers; the names inside it link to the people and places they name.

    Eliphelet receives two seats in David’s list, while the arithmetic insists there are nine sons. The genealogy leaves the duplication sitting neatly in place, as if names occasionally bred as well as people.

    David’s sons in Hebron and Jerusalemvv. 1–9

    The family begins with six sons born to David in Hebron, each introduced through his mother: Amnon, Daniel, Absalom, Adonijah, Shephatiah, and Ithream. David reigned there seven years and six months, then Jerusalem supplied another four through Bathsheba—Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon—followed by nine other sons. Eliphelet appears once in the first trio and once in the concluding tally, with no explanation offered; the list simply carries on, and Tamar is named as their sister.

    The line after Solomonvv. 10–24

    After Solomon, the genealogy proceeds in a long, unhurried chain down to Josiah. Josiah’s sons are placed in order, with Zedekiah third; then, in the very next turn, Zedekiah appears among Jehoiakim’s successors, beside Jeconiah, without the intervening relationship being supplied. Jeconiah is called captive, and from him the names continue through Shealtiel, Pedaiah, Zerubbabel, Hananiah, Shemaiah, and finally Elioenai’s seven sons. The chapter ends not with a flourish but with Anani, which is rather the genealogical equivalent of putting away the ink.

    Who else the chapter reaches

    Names written in the English are linked in the text above. These are the ones that are not: an entity the Hebrew or Greek names under a spelling the translation does not use, or one reached only by an assertion about a verse of this chapter.

    Named in the Hebrew or Greek somewhere in this chapter, under a form the English renders differently — the registry's Ludim against the translation's Ludites — so there is no word in the sentence to hang the link on.

    Reached by an assertion Atlas extracted from a verse of this chapter rather than by a name written in it — a pronoun, a title, or a participant the sentence carries without naming. This layer is model-read and measured at 88.6–90.3% precision, and it is kept separate from the names above for that reason.
