    Description

    Who was Ahi?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Ahi, whose name means "brother," is listed in the genealogy of the tribe of Asher. He was the son of Shomer (or 'Shamer'), who was a descendant of Asher through Heber. The biblical text does not provide any additional details about Ahi's life, role, or the significance of his name. (1Ch.7.34).

    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 Ahi4 of 4 entities the graph connects to Ahi, in one group: kinship 4. 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.ShomerChild of · 2 versesAramSibling of · 1 verseJehubbahSibling of · 1 verseRohgahSibling of · 1 verseAhi

    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.

    No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.
