    Description

    Who was Jehoahaz?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, was a king of Israel who reigned for seventeen years, as recorded in 2Ki.10.35 and 2Ki.13.1. He succeeded his father, Jehu, on the throne of Israel. During his reign, Israel faced oppression from the Arameans, led by King Hazael and his son Ben-hadad III(2Ki.13.3, 22). The text states that Jehoahaz did evil in the sight of the Lord, following the sins of Jeroboam, which led to Israel's suffering (2Ki.13.2). However, when Jehoahaz sought the Lord's favor, God provided a deliverer for Israel, allowing them to escape from the Arameans (2Ki.13.4-5). Despite this, Israel continued to face military challenges, and their army was greatly reduced (2Ki.13.7). Jehoahaz's reign was marked by ongoing conflict with the Arameans and the consequences of Israel's disobedience to God. After his death, his son Jehoash (also known as Joash) succeeded him as king (2Ki.13.9).

    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.

    How the graph connects Jehoahaz10 of 10 entities the graph connects to Jehoahaz, in 3 groups: kinship 2, company 2, events 6. Kinship, company and ground are stated relations; events counts the acts two entities stand in together and is not a relation. Each mark is sized by how many verses name that entity and labelled with the link and the count, so the grouping and the size are both readable without colour. Distance from the centre carries nothing.JehuChild of · 1 event · 46 versesJoashFather of · 1 event · 23 versesKinshipJehoahaz’s reignTook part in · 2 versesJoash’s reignTook part in · 2 versesCompanyIsrael1 event · 2,578 versesSin1 event · 240 versesSamaria3 events · 124 versesBattle1 event · 83 versesJoash2 events · 26 versesHazael1 event · 21 versesEventsJehoahaz
