Description

Who was Joshibiah?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Joshibiah is mentioned in 1Ch.4.35 as one of the leaders from the tribe of Simeon during the reign of King Hezekiah of Judah. The context of the passage is the genealogy and history of the tribe of Simeon (1Ch.4.24-43). During Hezekiah's reign, some Simeonites, including Joshibiah, migrated to the region of Gedor in search of pasture for their flocks (1Ch.4.39). They also attacked and displaced the Hamites and Meunites who were living there (1Ch.4.40-41). These events likely took place in the late 8th century BC, during the religious and political reforms of King Hezekiah (2Chronicles 29-32).

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.
