Description
Who was Eliab?
Eliab, the son of Helon, is mentioned in Num.1.9; 2.7; 7.24,29; and Num.10.16 as the leader of the tribe of Zebulun during the Israelites' wilderness journey. He was appointed as the representative of his tribe during the census conducted by Moses and Aaron (Num.1.9). Eliab's tribe, along with the tribes of Judah and Issachar, camped on the east side of the tabernacle (Num.2.7). As the leader, Eliab presented the offering of the tribe of Zebulun during the dedication of the tabernacle (Num.7.24,29). He also led his tribe in the order of march when the Israelites set out from Mount Sinai (Num.10.16).
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.

The pattern
Where Eliab 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.
5 verses across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere. Named in Numbers (5).
