Description
Who was Jehoaddan?
Jehoaddan is mentioned in 2Ch.25.1 and 2Ki.14.2 as the mother of King Amaziah of Judah. She was from Jerusalem, but no further information is provided about her background or family. Jehoaddan's son, Amaziah, became king at the age of 25 and reigned for 29 years in Jerusalem. The text does not give any details about Jehoaddan's role in her son's life or reign, but her mention in the context of Amaziah's accession to the throne suggests that the mother of the king was considered a significant figure. The fact that her place of origin, Jerusalem, is specifically mentioned may also indicate that she was from an influential family or had connections to the royal court.
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.

The pattern
Where Jehoaddan 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.
