Description
Who was Shallum?
Shallum, mentioned in Neh.3.12, was the son of Hallohesh and played a role in the rebuilding of Jerusalem's wall during the time of Nehemiah. He is described as the ruler of half the district of Jerusalem, indicating that he held a position of authority and responsibility within the city. Shallum and his daughters worked together to repair a section of the wall, demonstrating their commitment to the restoration of Jerusalem's defenses. The involvement of his daughters in the rebuilding effort suggests that the entire family participated in this important task.
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.
