Description

Who was Ishi?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Ishi is listed as one of the heads of a father's house in the half-tribe of Manasseh (1Ch.5.24). He is mentioned alongside other leaders such as Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. These men are described as mighty warriors, famous men, and heads of their fathers' houses. The context suggests that they were influential leaders within the tribe of Manasseh, responsible for their clans and families.

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.
