    Description

    Who was Chileab?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Chileab, also known as Daniel, was one of King David's sons, born to him by Abigail the Carmelitess. Abigail was originally the wife of Nabal, but after Nabal's death, she became David's wife (1Samuel 25). In the list of David's sons born in Hebron, Chileab is mentioned as the second son (2Sa.3.3), while in the parallel passage in 1Ch.3.1, he is called Daniel. The reason for this difference in names is not explicitly stated in the Bible.

    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.

    How the graph connects Chileab 10 of 23 entities the graph connects to Chileab, in 2 groups: kinship 9, events 1. Kinship, company and ground are stated relations; events counts the acts two entities stand in together and is not a relation. Each mark is sized by how many verses name that entity and labelled with the link and the count, so the grouping and the size are both readable without colour. Distance from the centre carries nothing.DavidChild of · 2 events · 964 versesSolomonSibling of · 272 versesAbsalomSibling of · 1 event · 92 versesAdonijahSibling of · 1 event · 24 versesAmnonSibling of · 21 versesAbigailChild of · 1 event · 14 versesTamarSibling of · 13 versesNathanSibling of · 5 versesEliadaSibling of · 3 versesKinshipHebron2 events · 57 versesEventsChileab

    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.

    Where the story of Chileab happens The one place the claims about Chileab reach, on a map of the world the text moves through, framed to them: Hebron. Each dot is a coordinate from the gazetteer, sized by how many rows put Chileab there. The coastline is a modern one, simplified; no border, road or settlement of any period is drawn, and no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.Hebron

    The pattern

    Where Chileab 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.
