Description
Who was Jehohanan?
Jehohanan is mentioned in Ezr.10.28 as one of the descendants of Bebai who had married foreign women during the Babylonian exile. This chapter lists the names of the men who had taken foreign wives, including representatives from various families and clans. Jehohanan's inclusion in this list suggests that he, like many others, had married a woman from one of the surrounding nations, which was contrary to the Law of Moses. In response to Ezra's call for repentance and reform, these men pledged to put away their foreign wives and children, demonstrating their willingness to follow Ezra's leadership and to restore their obedience to God's law. The text does not provide any further details about Jehohanan's life or his role in the community.
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
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.
