    Description

    Jezreel in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Jezreel was a prominent city in the Jezreel Valley, located in the territory of Issachar (Joshua 19:18). It served as one of the royal residences of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel (1Ki.21.1). The city is best known for its association with the vineyard of Naboth, which Ahab coveted and acquired through Jezebel's scheming, leading to the prophecy of their downfall (1Kings 21). Jezreel was also the scene of Jehu's coup against the house of Ahab, where he killed Joram (Ahab's son) and Jezebel (2Kings 9). The name "Jezreel" is used symbolically in the Book of Hosea to represent God's judgment on the house of Jehu for the bloodshed at Jezreel (Hosea 1:4) and the future restoration of Israel (Hosea 1:11). The city was a significant administrative center during the reigns of the kings of Israel and was known for its strategic location and fertile surroundings.

    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.
