Description

Who was Uzzi?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Uzzi was a high priest who served in the line of Eleazar, the third son of Aaron. He was the son of Bukki and the father of Zerahiah. Uzzi is mentioned in the genealogy of the high priests who descended from Eleazar. This lineage was important for establishing the legitimate succession of high priests. Ezra, the priest and scribe who led a return from Babylon, was also a descendant of Uzzi according to his recorded genealogy.

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.
