    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 Korah10 of 10 entities the graph connects to Korah, in 2 groups: kinship 8, events 2. 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.TemanSibling of · 13 versesEliphazChild of · 1 event · 8 versesKenazSibling of · 5 versesa wife of EliphazChild of · 3 versesGatamSibling of · 1 event · 3 versesOmarSibling of · 3 versesZephoSibling of · 3 versesAmalekSibling of · 1 event · 2 versesKinshipEdom1 event · 100 versesChief1 event · 18 versesEventsKorah

    The places the claims about this person reach, drawn where the gazetteer locates them. A point is where a row puts them and never where tradition does; no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.

    Where the story of Korah happensThe one place the claims about Korah reach, on a map of the world the text moves through, framed to them: Edom. Each dot is a coordinate from the gazetteer, sized by how many rows put Korah there. The coastline is a modern one, simplified; no border, road or settlement of any period is drawn, and no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.Edom
