Description
Who was Michael?
Michael is mentioned in the book of 1 Chronicles as the leader of the tribe of Issachar during King David's reign (1Ch.27.18). He is described as the son of Omri, although no further details about his father are provided. In the context of 1Chronicles 27, David organizes his administration and appoints leaders over various aspects of the kingdom, including the tribes of Israel. Michael is listed among the tribal leaders, representing Issachar. The fact that he held this position suggests that he was a prominent figure within his tribe and had the necessary leadership skills to oversee the affairs of Issachar.
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.
