- Shiloni:
- Some suppose Shiloni to be the name of a man; others derive it from Shiloh, the city so called; and others derive it from Shelah, son of Judah. "And she yet again¹ conceived,ª° and bareª° a son;ª and calledª°¹ his nameª Shelah:ª and he was¹ at Chezib,ª when she bareª° him." {Gen 38:5}, Shelah, "And the sonsª of Judahª after their familiesª were;¹ of Shelah,ª the familyª of the Shelanites:ª of Pharez,ª the familyª of the Pharzites:ª of Zerah,ª the familyª of the Zarhites.ª" {Num 26:20}, Shelanites, "The sonsª of Shelahª the sonª of Judahª [were], Erª the fatherª of Lecah,ª and Laadahª the fatherª of Mareshah,ª and the familiesª of the houseª of them that wroughtª fine linen,ª of the houseª of Ashbea,ª" {1Ch 4:21} + "And of¹ the Shilonites;ª Asaiahª the firstborn,ª and his sons.ª" {1Ch 9:5}
