| | <p> The Sameh between Tell Milh and Beersheba, proposed for this place, is an error for Saweh (i.e., Hazor-Shual); and Tristram suggests (Bible Places, page 18) that [[Shema]] (i.e., Sheba) is represented by Tell es-Seba, about two miles east of Bir es-Seba. (See [[Beersheba]]). </p> |

| <p> (Heb. in three forms, Shema', '''''שְׁמָע''''' '','' Joshua 15:26; [[Shema]] ' '', '''''שֵׁמִע''''' '' ;, elsewhere, except "in pause, " ''She'' ' ''Ma,'' '''''שָׁמִע''''' , 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 ( 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 ( 1 Chronicles 8:13). B.C. post 1618. He is probably the same as Shimhi ( 1 Chronicles 8:21). </p> <p> '''3.''' Son of Joel and father of Azaz, among the [[Reubenite]] chiefs ( 1 Chronicles 5:8). B.C. ante 1090. Perhaps the same with Shemaiah (q.v.) of 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 ( Nehemiah 8:4). B.C. 458. </p> <p> '''5.''' A town in the south of Judah, named between [[Amam]] and [[Moladah]] ( 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]] ( 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>
