Description
Who was Oded?
Oded was a prophet from Samaria who lived during the reign of King Pekah of Israel. When the Israelite army returned from a successful campaign against Judah, bringing back 200,000 captives, Oded confronted them (2Ch.28.9-11). He rebuked the army for their intention to enslave their fellow Israelites, reminding them of their own sins against God. Oded warned them of God's fierce wrath if they proceeded with this plan. As a result of his intervention, the Israelite leaders released the captives, provided for their needs, and sent them back to Judah (2Ch.28.12-15). Oded's bold prophecy demonstrates the role of prophets in calling the people to repentance and upholding the principles of justice and compassion.
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
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.
