This Shammua entry refers to the spy for the tribe of Reuben in Numbers 13:4, not to the priestly head in Nehemiah 12:18. He belongs to the national testing of Israel at the edge of the promised land. First appears in Num 13:4.1
AI summary: This Shammua matters because his single cross reference places him among the representatives whose mission becomes bound up with Israel's failure to trust God. The entry contributes to the weight of that decisive wilderness moment by grounding it in named tribal delegates. Taken together, the material presents this Shammua as one of Israel's spies at Kadesh.1
