Description
Who was Jedaiah?
Jedaiah is mentioned in 1Ch.9.10, Neh.11.10, and Neh.12.6,19 as a priest who returned to Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. In 1Chronicles 9 and Nehemiah 11, he is listed among the priests who settled in Jerusalem, indicating his role in reestablishing the temple worship and the spiritual life of the community. Neh.12.6 identifies him as one of the priests who returned with Zerubbabel, the first group of exiles to return to Jerusalem. In Neh.12.19, Jedaiah is mentioned as the head of a priestly family during the time of Joiakim, the high priest. These references suggest that Jedaiah and his descendants played a significant role in the priestly duties and the restoration of temple worship in the post-exilic period.
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.
