Description
Who was Bithiah?
Bithiah was a daughter of Pharaoh who married Mered, a man from the tribe of Judah (1Ch. 4:18). This marriage is mentioned in the genealogy of Judah, indicating that it was a significant event. The fact that Mered married a daughter of Pharaoh suggests that he may have held a prominent position or had a special connection with Egypt. Such marriages between Israelites and Egyptians were rare, and this union may have taken place during a time of peace and good relations between the two nations. Bithiah's inclusion in the genealogy also highlights the presence of foreign women in the lineage of Judah, demonstrating the complex social and cultural interactions of the Israelites with their neighbors.
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.

Places
Where this happens
A person is placed by the events they take part in, and an event has to clear three things to place them: it must say where it happened, that place must be one the gazetteer can put a coordinate on, and the verse must report it rather than foretell, command or ask it. Nothing anchored here clears all three. Where the text names a setting no gazetteer surveys — a vineyard, a palace, a plot of ground — it is left off rather than guessed at; where a place is named only in a prophecy, the map does not draw what was said to be coming as though it had happened; and a place reached only through a relation is not inherited, because standing beside somebody is not being somewhere.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.

Where Bithiah is named
Every book of the corpus in the order it is read, each as wide as the chapters it holds. A bar is the verses of that book which write the name, and the flat stretches are as much of the answer as the bars.
