Description
Who was Attai?
Attai is mentioned in 2Chronicles 11 as one of the sons of King Rehoboam of Judah and his wife Maacah, the daughter of Absalom. Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, became king after the division of the kingdom into Judah and Israel. He had many wives and concubines, and Maacah was his favorite wife. Attai is listed among the sons born to Rehoboam and Maacah, along with Abijah, who would later succeed Rehoboam as king of Judah. As a prince in the royal line of Judah, Attai would have held a position of importance and influence within the kingdom.
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.

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.
