Description

Who was Hadad?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Hadad was an Edomite prince who became an adversary to King Solomon of Israel (1Ki.11.14-22). When King David conquered Edom, Hadad was a young boy. He fled to Egypt with some Edomite servants of his father and found favor with Pharaoh, who gave him a house, land, and provisions. Pharaoh also gave Hadad his sister-in-law, the sister of Queen Tahpenes, as a wife. Hadad and his wife had a son named Genubath, who was raised in Pharaoh's palace. After the deaths of David and Joab, Hadad returned to Edom and became an adversary to Solomon, causing trouble for Israel. The Bible does not provide further details about Hadad's actions against Solomon or the outcome of their conflict.

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 Hadad 10 of 12 entities the graph connects to Hadad, in 2 groups: kinship 1, events 9. 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.GenubathFather of · 1 event · 1 verseKinshipDavid1 event · 964 versesEgypt2 events · 649 versesSolomon1 event · 272 versesFood1 event · 128 versesJoab1 event · 120 versesEdom1 event · 100 versesMidian1 event · 59 versesPharaoh5 events · 12 versesParan1 event · 8 versesEventsHadad

Each dot is a coordinate from the gazetteer, sized by how many rows put Hadad 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.EgyptMidianParan

The pattern

Where Hadad 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.

Where the name is written across the corpus. 5 verses across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere.

5 verses across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere. Named in 1 Kings (5).

Hadad is named in 5 verses, and the name is written 7 times in them — 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.
