    Description

    Who was Hananiah?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Hananiah, also known by his Babylonian name Shadrach, was one of the three friends of Daniel who were taken into captivity to Babylon during the reign of King Jehoiakim of Judah (Dan.1.6-7). Along with Daniel, Mishael (Meshach), and Azariah (Abednego), Hananiah was chosen to serve in Nebuchadnezzar's court. They were given new names and trained in the language and literature of the Babylonians (Dan.1.4-5). Hananiah and his friends remained faithful to God and refused to defile themselves with the king's food and wine (Dan.1.8-16). God granted them knowledge, skill, and wisdom, and they excelled in their service to the king (Dan.1.17-20). Later, when King Nebuchadnezzar erected a golden image and demanded that all people worship it, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah refused to comply (Dan.3.12). As a result, they were thrown into a fiery furnace, but God protected them, and they emerged unharmed (Dan.3.19-27). This event led Nebuchadnezzar to acknowledge the power of their God and promote them to higher positions in the province of Babylon (Dan.3.28-30). Hananiah's faith and courage in the face of persecution serve as an example of unwavering devotion to God.

    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 Hananiah 7 of 7 entities the graph connects to Hananiah, in one group: events 7. 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.

    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 Hananiah 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.

    Hananiah is named in 18 verses, and the name is written 20 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.
