Facet: Regents

Data
From Verbum Help:[quote]
• Regent
• Agent: The person entity annotated as a regent (national or regional leader)
• Role: The context-specific role of this instance. Available roles include:
• King
• Queen
• Emperor
• Tetrarch
• Region: The context-specific region the regent administers.[1]
Bible Browser
The Bible Browser behaves as expected in identifying passages with the King of Egypt (Pharaoh) and Joseph.
Interactive
No interactive is available for this data.
Context Menu and Information Panel
The Context Menu is shown above with the Bible Browser rather than off the Bible as in several posts.
The Information Panel again contains the expected menu. The attributes of the Regent label provide a standard popup information card on mouse-over. Clicking will open the Factbook for the entry.
Search
A search initiated from the Context Menu uses the search argument {Label Regent WHERE Agent ~ <Person Pharaoh (time of Joseph)> AND Region ~ <Place Egypt (nation)> AND Role ~ "King"}
The final entry in this series is Judges, which, like Regents has only the expected behavior.
Facet: Judges

Data
From Verbum Help: [quote]
• Judge
• Agent: The person entity annotated as a judge.
• Region: The context-specific region the judge administers.[2]
Bible Browser
Yes, I cheated and worked backwards. I ran a search to find potential cases of judges interacting with prophets:
I did not know the sole example would be Deborah who is classified both as a judge and a prophet. Therefore, in the Bible Browser I used Prophet → Agent: Deborah and Judges → Agent: Deborah.
Interactive
There is no interactive for this data.
Context Menu and Information Panel
The information panel has the expected data both for judges and for prophets. It has the standard popup on mouse-over and Factbook on click.
The Context Menu also has the expected entries (and omissions).
Search
The search argument built by the Context Menu is {Label Judge WHERE Agent ~ <Person Deborah (judge)> AND Region ~ <Place Israel>} which yields:
