Description
Who was Hebron?
Hebron was a son of Kohath and a grandson of Levi. He is mentioned in the genealogies of the Levites in Exodus, Numbers, and 1 Chronicles. Hebron's brothers were Amram, Izhar, and Uzziel (Exo.6.18; Num.3.19; 1Ch.6.2,18). His descendants were known as the Hebronites, who were assigned various duties in the service of the tabernacle and the temple (Num.3.27; 26.58; 1Ch.26.23,30,31). Some of the notable Hebronites included Jeriah, the chief of the Hebronites during the time of David (1Ch.23.19; 26.31), and Hashabiah, a leader during the time of David (1Ch.15.9).
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.
The 10 best-attested of 11 are drawn. All 11 are listed below.

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.
