Bible Person
Meaning: God is my perfection; my happiness; my peace · Male · 1 cross reference
This Shelemiah entry refers to the father of Irijah in Jeremiah 37:13, not to the Ezra 10 figures or the fathers named elsewhere. He belongs to the family background of a guard official involved in Jeremiah's arrest. First appears in Jer 37:13.1
AI summary: This Shelemiah matters because his single cross reference supports the identity of the official who seizes Jeremiah at the gate. Even a brief paternal notice helps root that hostile action in a remembered household. Taken together, the material presents this Shelemiah as a familial source in the persecution of Jeremiah.1
