Description
Who was Shobek?
Shobek is mentioned in Neh.10.24 as one of the Levites who signed the covenant under the leadership of Nehemiah. After the completion of the wall of Jerusalem and the public reading of the Law, the people of Israel made a solemn covenant to follow God's commandments and to separate themselves from the surrounding nations. Shobek, along with other Levites, priests, and leaders, signed this covenant, pledging to uphold the Law of Moses and to support the temple service. The signing of the covenant was a significant event in the spiritual reformation of the Jewish community after their return from Babylonian exile, and Shobek's participation demonstrates his commitment to God and his role as a Levite in the restored community.
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.
