Description
Who was Rephaiah?
Rephaiah is mentioned in 1Ch.4.42 as one of the leaders of the Simeonites who led an expedition against the Amalekites during the reign of King Hezekiah. The Simeonites, descendants of Simeon, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, sought to expand their territory. Rephaiah, along with Pelatiah, Neariah, and Uzziel, led 500 men to Mount Seir, where they attacked and defeated the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped earlier conflicts with Israel. The Simeonites then settled in the conquered territory. This event demonstrates the ongoing conflicts between Israel and its enemies and the efforts of the tribes to secure their inheritance in the Promised Land.
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.

The places the claims about this person reach, drawn where the gazetteer locates them. A point is where a row puts them and never where tradition does; no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.
