Description

Who was Eluzai?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Eluzai is mentioned in the list of Benjamite warriors who joined David at Ziklag when he was fleeing from King Saul (1Ch.12.5). He is described as one of the mighty men, indicating his skill and valor in battle. The Benjamites were known for their bravery and prowess as warriors, and Eluzai's presence among David's supporters demonstrates the loyalty and strength he brought to David's cause. The text does not provide any additional information about Eluzai's background, his specific role in David's army, or his later life. His inclusion in the list of David's mighty men highlights the diverse group of warriors who rallied around David during his time of exile and played a crucial role in his rise to power as king of Israel.

Relations

Direct connections

The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.

Not stated

No family is recorded for this person.

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 Eluzai 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.

Eluzai is named in 1 verse — occurrences of the name in the Hebrew or Greek, counted in the versification of the Berean Standard Bible (v5.7). Every book of the corpus is drawn, its width its share of the 1,189 chapters. 65 of the 66 books never write it. A verse that tells of this subject without writing the name is not counted here.
