    Description

    Who was Jehoram?

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Jehoram, also known as Joram, was the son of Jehoshaphat and became king of Judah. He reigned for eight years in Jerusalem. Jehoram married Athaliah, the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel. He followed the evil ways of the kings of Israel and did what was wrong in the eyes of the Lord. During his reign, Edom revolted against Judah's rule. Jehoram engaged in battle with Edom but was surrounded. He managed to break through during the night. The Lord struck Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels, and he died in great pain. His son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.

    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 Jehoram10 of 25 entities the graph connects to Jehoram, in 2 groups: kinship 4, 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.JehoshaphatChild of · 4 events · 67 versesUzziahFather of · 33 versesAhaziahFather of · 3 events · 26 versesAthaliahSpouse of · 15 versesKinshipJudah6 events · 1,023 versesJerusalem2 events · 888 versesEdom6 events · 100 versesElijah1 event · 92 versesChariot1 event · 78 versesRebellion1 event · 43 versesEventsJehoram
