    Description

    Holon in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Holon was a town located in the hill country of Judah that was assigned to the Levites (Joshua 15:51; 21:15). In 1Ch.6.58, it is referred to as Hilen. The exact location is uncertain, but it may be identified with the ruins of Beit 'Alam. As a Levitical city, Holon would have been inhabited by the priestly tribe of Levi who were responsible for the religious duties in Israel.

    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.
