Bible Person
Meaning: that hears or obeys the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference
This Shemaiah entry refers to one of the men named in Ezra 10:21, not to the Simeonite ancestor, the Levitical scribe, the teaching Levite, or the false prophet. He belongs to the restored community's difficult process of covenant correction after exile. First appears in Ezra 10:21.1
AI summary: This Shemaiah matters because his single cross reference places him among those publicly identified in Ezra's response to unlawful marriages. The entry shows how specific and personal covenant renewal became in the restored community. Taken together, the material presents this Shemaiah as one of the individuals included in post-exilic reform.1
