Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Transmission

Teachers and students

Teaching passed from one person to another, in the direction of the arrows — not ancestry, and not succession.

What this means

In the direction the records give it. This is not biological ancestry and it is not institutional succession: a student who inherited no office still received the teaching, and an heir who received the office may have been taught by someone else entirely. It does not imply that teacher and student agreed.

Connections

How Nathanael connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

Identification 1

What this means

One figure treated as another in some context. Not literal identity in all contexts, and usually a claim by a third party.

Does not imply literal identity in all contexts · that either tradition made the identification
