    Description

    Who was Jeshaiah?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Jeshaiah is mentioned in 1 Chronicles as one of the sons of Jeduthun, a Levite and one of the chief musicians appointed by King David to serve in the tabernacle choir. Jeduthun, along with Asaph and Heman, was responsible for leading the music and praise in the tabernacle. Jeshaiah, along with his brothers, was a skilled musician and singer, and he was appointed by lot to serve in the choir. The mention of Jeshaiah in this context highlights the importance of music and worship in ancient Israelite culture and the role of the Levites in facilitating these practices.

    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 Jeshaiah 10 of 14 entities the graph connects to Jeshaiah, in 2 groups: kinship 5, events 5. 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.Obed-edomSibling of · 1 event · 16 versesJeduthunChild of · 15 versesMattithiahSibling of · 5 versesGedaliahSibling of · 1 event · 2 versesHashabiahSibling of · 1 event · 2 versesKinshipAsaph1 event · 33 versesZaccur1 event · 3 versesBukkiah1 event · 2 versesHananiah1 event · 2 versesJoseph1 event · 2 versesEventsJeshaiah

    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.

    The pattern

    Where Jeshaiah 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.

    Jeshaiah is named in 2 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.
