Description
Who was Hananiah?
Hananiah is mentioned in 1Ch.3.19 and 1Ch.3.21 as a descendant of King David. He was the son of Zerubbabel, who led the first group of exiles back to Jerusalem from Babylon. Zerubbabel played a crucial role in rebuilding the temple and reestablishing Jewish worship in Jerusalem. Hananiah is listed among the sons of Zerubbabel, indicating his lineage in the royal line of David. In 1Ch.3.21, Hananiah's son Pelatiah is mentioned, along with his other descendants. The inclusion of Hananiah in the genealogy of David demonstrates the continuity of the Davidic line after the exile and the importance of tracing the lineage of significant figures in Israel's history.
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.
