Description

Who was Jehiel?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Jehiel is mentioned in 1Ch.15.18, 20, and 1Ch.16.5 as one of the Levitical musicians who served during the reign of King David. In 1Chronicles 15, Jehiel is listed among the Levites chosen to play the harp and lyre when the Ark of the Covenant was brought to Jerusalem. He is described as a "second-degree" musician, suggesting a level of skill and experience in his role. In 1Ch.16.5, Jehiel is mentioned again as one of the musicians who ministered before the Ark of the Covenant with harps, lyres, and cymbals. This chapter describes the celebration and worship that took place when the Ark was placed in the tent David had prepared for it. Jehiel's inclusion in these passages highlights the importance of music and worship in the religious life of ancient Israel and the significant role played by skilled musicians like Jehiel in the temple service.

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 Jehiel 10 of 12 entities the graph connects to Jehiel, in one group: events 10. 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.Levi1 event · 329 versesHarp2 events · 38 versesAsaph2 events · 33 versesSinger1 event · 29 versesLyre2 events · 20 versesObed-edom2 events · 16 versesZechariah2 events · 7 versesBenaiah2 events · 5 versesMattithiah2 events · 5 versesJeiel2 events · 4 versesJehiel

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 Jehiel 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. 3 verses across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere.

Jehiel is named in 3 verses — 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.
