<p> ''''' shē´ma ''''' ( שׁמע , <i> ''''' shemā‛ ''''' </i> ; Σαμαά , <i> ''''' Samaá ''''' </i> ): [[A]] city of Judah in the [[Negeb]] (&nbsp; Joshua 15:26 ). If, as some think, identical with [[Sheba]] (which see) of &nbsp;Joshua 19:2 , then the latter must have been inserted here from &nbsp;Joshua 15:26 . It is noticeable that the root letters (שׁמע , <i> '''''sh''''' </i> - <i> '''''m''''' </i> - <i> '''''‛''''' </i> ) were those from which [[Simeon]] is derived. [[Shema]] is probably identical with [[Jeshua]] (&nbsp;Nehemiah 11:26 ). The place was clearly far South, and it may be <i> '''''Kh''''' </i> . <i> '''''Sa‛wah''''' </i> , a ruin upon a prominent hilltop between <i> '''''Kh''''' </i> . <i> '''''‛Attı̄r''''' </i> and <i> '''''Khirbet''''' </i> <i> '''''el''''' </i> - <i> '''''Milḥ''''' </i> . There is a wall around the ruins, of large blocks of conglomerate flint ( <i> [[Pef]] </i> , [[Iii,]] 409, Sh Xxv ). </p>
<p> <strong> [[Shema]] </strong> . <strong> 1 </strong> . A Reubenite, &nbsp; 1 Chronicles 5:8 . See Shimei, No. <strong> 5 </strong> . <strong> 2 </strong> . One of those who put to flight the inhabitants of [[Gath]] (&nbsp; 1 Chronicles 8:13 , called in v. 21 S <strong> himei </strong> ). <strong> 3 </strong> . One of those who stood at Ezra’s right hand, at the reading of the Law (&nbsp; Nehemiah 8:4 , called in 1Es 9:43 <strong> Sammus). 4 </strong> . A town of Judah, situated in the Negeb. The site is unknown. It is probably this Shema that appears in &nbsp; 1 Chronicles 2:43 as a ‘son’ of Hebron. Cf. also Sheba, <strong> 4 </strong> . </p>

<p> (Heb. in three forms, Shema', שְׁמָע '','' &nbsp;Joshua 15:26; [[Shema]] ''', שֵׁמִע'' ;, elsewhere, except "in pause, " ''She'' '''Ma,'' שָׁמִע, &nbsp;1 Chronicles 2:43 all meaning [[Rumor]] ; Sept. Σαμά, v.r. Σαμαά, Σαλμάα, Σαμαϊ v ας, etc.), the name of four men and of one place. </p> <p> '''1.''' Last named of the four sons of Hebron, and father of Raham, descendants of Caleb, great-grandson of Judah (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 2:43-44). B.C. ante 1658. </p> <p> '''2.''' A Benjamite, son of Elpaal, and one of the heads of the fathers of the inhabitants of Aijalon, who drove out the inhabitants of Gath (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 8:13). B.C. post 1618. He is probably the same as Shimhi (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 8:21). </p> <p> '''3.''' Son of Joel and father of Azaz, among the [[Reubenite]] chiefs (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 5:8). B.C. ante 1090. Perhaps the same with Shemaiah (q.v.) of &nbsp;1 Chronicles 5:4. (See Joel 2.) </p> <p> '''4.''' One of those (apparently laymen) who stood at Ezra's right hand while lie read the law to the people (&nbsp;Nehemiah 8:4). B.C. 458. </p> <p> '''5.''' A town in the south of Judah, named between [[Amam]] and [[Moladah]] (&nbsp;Joshua 15:26). The place seems to have no connection with No. 1 above (see Keil, ''Ad Loc.'' Chronicles). In the parallel list of towns set off from Judah to [[Simeon]] (&nbsp;Joshua 19:2), the name appears as Sheba (q.v.), which is perhaps the more correct, as Shema never, elsewhere appears as the appellation of a town. Knobel (in the ''Kurzgef. Exeg. Handb.'' ad loc.) suggests that it may be the present ruins ''Sameh,'' between Milh and Beer- sheba (Van de Velde, ''Syria,'' 2, 148). </p>
