Description

Who was Rehabiah?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Rehabiah was the son of Eliezer and grandson of Moses (1Ch.23.17). He was a Levite and had many descendants who were also Levites (1Ch.23.17). The Levites were responsible for assisting the priests in the temple service and had various duties assigned to them. Rehabiah's descendants were among the Levites who served during the reign of King David (1Ch.24.21). They were also among the Levites who were appointed as treasurers and other officials (1Ch.26.25). The multiple mentions of Rehabiah and his descendants in the genealogies and lists of Levites highlight the importance of their role in maintaining the worship and service of God in the temple.

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.
