    Description

    Havvoth-jair in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Havvoth-jair, meaning "the villages of Jair," were settlements in the region of Gilead, east of the Jordan River. Jair, a leader from the tribe of Manasseh, captured these villages during the Israelite conquest of the Promised Land (Num.32.41). The territory was named after Jair and became part of the inheritance of the half-tribe of Manasseh settled in Gilead (Deut 3:14). Later, another Jair from Gilead, who judged Israel for twenty-two years, had thirty sons who controlled thirty towns, also known as Havvoth-jair (Judg 10:4). In 1Ch.2.23, it is mentioned that Geshur and Aram captured some of these villages from the descendants of Jair.

    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.
