Description
Who was Elisheba?
Elisheba is mentioned in the genealogy of the Levites as the wife of Aaron, the first High Priest of Israel (Exo.6.23). She was the daughter of Amminadab and the sister of Nahshon, who was the leader of the tribe of Judah during the Exodus (Num.1.7). Elisheba married Aaron and bore him four sons: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. Her sons served as priests alongside their father, Aaron. Elisheba's marriage to Aaron highlights the connection between the priestly Levites and the royal tribe of Judah. The Bible does not provide any further details about Elisheba's life or her role as the wife of the High Priest.
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.
