Implicitly mentioned persons

In the seventh chapter of the Revelation of John the tribes of Israel are listed ( Rev 7,4-8  EU ). Since these are named after the sons or grandsons of Jacob , they are indirect mentions of people mentioned in the Old Testament. In addition to those mentioned above, because they were specifically mentioned as a person elsewhere, Judah and Joseph are named at this point in Revelation: Reuben , Gad , Aser , Naftali , Manasseh , Simeon , Levi , Issachar , Zebulon , and Benjamin .

Remarks

  1. The position listed in the AT usually corresponds to the first mention. In addition, most of the people named have other entries in the AT.
  2. In the case of persons named several times in the NT, usually only one place to be mentioned is listed. Accordingly, a person can also be mentioned more often in the NT than is given here.
  3. Abraham was originally called Abram and only received the name Abraham from God in 1 Mos 17.5  EU .
  4. Bathsheba is not mentioned by name in Matthew, but as the wife of Uriah .
  5. Sarah was originally called Sarai and only received the name Sarah from God in 1 Mos 17.15  EU .
  6. It is not clear which person the Zechariah quoted in Matthew is. The last murder case of an innocent man, reported by the OT, relates to a Zechariah , who was not the son of Bekiah but Jehoiada (cf. 2 Chr 24,20-22  EU ). The prophet Zechariah, on the other hand, was actually the son of a Bekiah ( Zech 1,1  EU ). However, it is not reported that he was murdered.
  7. The tribes Dan and Ephraim are not mentioned in Revelation. Ephraim's father Joseph, who is indirectly ancestor of the tribes Ephraim and Manasseh, is named in the list, as well as Levi, whose descendants form an independent group within Israel , but do not represent a tribe.
