Ir-nahash in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Ir-nahash is mentioned in the genealogy of the descendants of Judah, specifically in connection with the family of Eshton (1Ch.4.12). The passage states that the men of Recah, who were descendants of Eshton, built or founded Ir-nahash. Its exact location remains unknown.

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 pattern

Where Ir-nahash 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.

Where the name is written across the corpus. 1 verse across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere.

1 verse across 1 of 66 books; 65 write the name nowhere. Named in 1 Chronicles (1).

Ir-nahash is named in 1 verse, and the name is written 2 times in them — 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.
