Description
Who was Zillethai?
In 1Chronicles 12, Zillethai is mentioned as one of the Manassite leaders who joined David at Ziklag when he was seeking refuge from King Saul. The chapter lists the warriors from various tribes who allied themselves with David during this time, recognizing him as the future king of Israel. Zillethai is named along with several other Manassite leaders, including Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, and Elihu. These men are described as brave warriors and commanders, indicating that they held positions of leadership within their tribe. The support of these Manassite leaders would have been valuable to David as he gathered allies and built his army in preparation for his eventual reign as king. The fact that Zillethai and the others joined David at Ziklag demonstrates their loyalty and belief in his divine appointment as Israel's future ruler.
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.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.
