Description

Who was Ammishaddai?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Ammishaddai was the father of Ahiezer, a prominent leader from the tribe of Dan during the Israelites' journey through the wilderness. Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai, was appointed as the leader of the Danites and was responsible for overseeing the census of his tribe. He also led the tribe of Dan when the Israelites were encamped and during their journey. Additionally, Ahiezer presented the offering of the tribe of Dan at the dedication of the tabernacle.

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.

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.
