Description
Who was Hashum?
Hashum is mentioned as an ancestor of a group of exiles who returned to Jerusalem from Babylonian captivity. In the lists of returnees recorded in Ezra and Nehemiah, the descendants of Hashum are numbered at 223 (Ezr.2.19) and 328 (Neh.7.22) respectively. Later, in the time of Ezra, some of the descendants of Hashum were found to have married foreign women and pledged to put them away (Ezr.10.33). No further information about Hashum is provided in the Bible. (Ezr.2.19; 10.33; Neh.7.22).
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
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.
