Description
Who was Asaiah?
Asaiah was a descendant of Judah mentioned in a list of people who lived in Jerusalem, recorded in 1Chronicles 9. He is described as "the firstborn of the Shilonites," which likely refers to a branch of the tribe of Judah. The context suggests that this list represents those who resettled in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. As a descendant of Judah living in Jerusalem, Asaiah was part of the group that helped repopulate the city and restore its community.
Relations
Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.

Where this happens
The places the claims about this person reach, drawn where the gazetteer locates them. A point is where a row puts them and never where tradition does; no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.
