Bible Person
Meaning: perfect; agreeable · Male · 1 cross reference
This Shallum entry refers to the ruler of half the district of Jerusalem in Nehemiah 3:12, not to the Ezra 10 figure, the Simeonite ancestor, or Jeremiah's uncle. He belongs to the civic leadership involved in rebuilding Jerusalem's wall. First appears in Neh 3:12.1
AI summary: This Shallum matters because his single cross reference places him in direct responsibility for repairing part of the city's defenses. The entry also preserves the unusual note that his daughters were involved, adding family texture to the rebuilding story. Taken together, the material presents this Shallum as a district ruler engaged in Jerusalem's restoration.1
