Description
Who was Isshiah?
Isshiah is mentioned in two passages in 1 Chronicles as a Levite who served during the reign of King David. In 1Ch.23.20, he is listed as a descendant of Moses, specifically as the son of Rehabiah and the grandson of Moses.
In 1Ch.24.25, Isshiah is again mentioned in the context of organizing the Levitical duties. He is described as the son of Rehabiah, emphasizing his lineage and connection to Moses.
As a Levite, Isshiah would have been responsible for various duties related to the tabernacle and later the temple, such as assisting the priests, singing, playing musical instruments, and maintaining the sacred spaces.
No other specific details are provided about Isshiah's life or role. His inclusion in these passages serves to highlight the importance of the Levites in the worship and service of God, as well as the continuity of their lineage from the time of Moses to the reign of David.
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.
