<li> A son of king Josiah (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 3:15; &nbsp;Jeremiah 22:11 ), who was elected to succeed his father on the throne, although he was two years younger than his brother Eliakim. He assumed the crown under the name of Jehoahaz (q.v.). He did not imitate the example of his father (&nbsp;2 Kings 23:32 ), but was "a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men" (&nbsp;Ezekiel 19:3 ). His policy was anti-Egyptian therefore. Necho, at that time at Riblah, sent an army against Jerusalem, which at once yielded, and Jehoahaz was carried captive to the [[Egyptian]] camp, [[Eliakim]] being appointed king in his stead. He remained a captive in Egypt till his death, and was the first king of Judah that died in exile. <div> <p> '''Copyright Statement''' These dictionary topics are from M.G.

<p> Two kings mentioned in the biblical record had the name Shallum, and each reigned for only a very short time. Shallum of Israel gained the throne through murdering the previous king, but one month later he himself was murdered (in 752 BC; &nbsp;2 Kings 15:10; &nbsp;2 Kings 15:13-14). Shallum of Judah (who was also known as Jehoahaz) reigned only three months before [[Pharaoh]] [[Necho]] deposed him and took him captive to Egypt (in 609 BC; &nbsp;2 Kings 23:30-34; &nbsp;Jeremiah 22:11-12; see [[Jehoahaz]] ).

<p> (Heb. Shallum', שִׁלּוּ ם '', Retribution'' ; Sept. usually Σελλούμ ), the name of at least twelve Hebrews. </p> <p> 1. The youngest son of Naphtali (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 7:13), called also SHILLEM. (&nbsp;Genesis 46:24). B.C. 1874. </p> <p> 2. The third in descent from Simeon, son of [[Shaul]] and father of [[Mibsam]] (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 4:25). B.C. ante 1618. </p> <p> 3. Son of [[Sisamai]] and father of Jekamiah, of the house of [[Sheshan]] and tribe of Judah (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 2:40-41). B.C. post 1300. </p> <p> 4. Son of Kore, and chief of the porters of the sanctuary in David's time.(&nbsp;1 Chronicles 9:17 sq., &nbsp;1 Chronicles 9:31). B.C. cir. 1050. He seems to be the same Shallum whose descendants returned from captivity (&nbsp;Ezra 2:42; &nbsp;Ezra 10:24; &nbsp;Nehemiah 7:45). He is apparently elsewhere called [[Meshullam]] (12:25), [[Meshelemiah]] (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 26:1), and [[Shelemiah]] (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 26:14). He was perhaps also the same with the "father" of Maaseiah in &nbsp;Jeremiah 35:4. </p> <p> 5. Son of Zadok and father of Hilkiah, a high priest (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 6:12-13; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 9:11), and an ancestor of Ezra the scribe (&nbsp;Ezra 7:2). B.C. post 950. He is called [[Sallumus]] by [[Josephus]] (Σάλλουμος, Ant. 10, 8, 6). He is the Meshullam of &nbsp;1 Chronicles 9:11; &nbsp;Nehemiah 11:11. (See [[High Priest]]). </p> <p> 6. The sixteenth king of Israel. His father's name was Jabesh. In the troubled times which followed the death of Jeroboam II (B.C. 781), the latter's son Zechariah was slain in the presence of the people by Shallum (B.C. 769), who by this act extinguished the dynasty of Jehu, as was predicted (&nbsp;2 Kings 10:30). (See Jehu); (See [[Zechariah]]). being opposed and slain by Menahem, who ascended the throne thus vacated (&nbsp;2 Kings 15:10-15). (See [[Kingdom Of Israel]]). </p> <p> 7. The father of Jehizkiah, which latter was one of the leading Ephraimites in the time of [[Ahaz]] and [[Pekah]] (&nbsp;2 Chronicles 28:12). B.C. ante 740. </p> <p> 8. The son of [[Tikvah]] and husband of the prophetess Hulldah (&nbsp;2 Kings 22:14). B.C. cir. 630. He appears to have been the custodian of the sacerdotal wardrobe (&nbsp;2 Chronicles 34:22). He was probably the same with Jeremiah's uncle (&nbsp;Jeremiah 32:7). </p> <p> 9. King of Judah, son of Josiah (&nbsp;Jeremiah 22:11), better known as Jehoahaz II (q.v.). [[Hengstenberg]] (''Christology Of The Old Test.'' 2'','' 400, Eng. transl.) regards the name as symbolical, "the recompensed one," and given to Jehoahaz in token of his fate, as one whom God recompensed according to his deserts. This would be plausible enough if it were only found in the prophecy; but a genealogical table is the last place where we should expect to find a symbolical name, and Shallum is more probably the original name of the king, which was changed to Jehoahaz when he came, to the crown. Upon a comparison of the ages of Jehoiakim, Jehoahaz or Shallum, and Zedekiah, it is evident that of the two last [[Zedekiah]] must have been the younger, and therefore that Shallum was the third, not the fourth, son of Josiah, as stated in &nbsp;1 Chronicles 3:15. </p> <p> 10. A priest of the descendants of Bani, who had taken a strange (i.e. idolatrous) wife, and was compelled by Ezra to put her away (&nbsp;Ezra 10:42). B.C. 457. </p> <p> 11. One of the [[Levitical]] porters who did the same (&nbsp;Ezra 10:24). B.C. 457. </p> <p> 12. Son of [[Halohesh]] and "ruler of the half part of Jerusalem," who, with his daughters, aided in building the walls (&nbsp;Nehemiah 3:12). B.C. 445. </p>
