Zim'mah. (purpose).
1. A Gershonite Levite, son of Jahath. 1Ch_6:20. (B.C. after 1706).
2. Another Gershonite, son of Shimei, 1Ch_6:42, possibly the same as Zimmah, 1.
3. Father or ancestor of Joab, a Gershonite, in the reign of Hezekiah. 2Ch_29:12. (B.C. before 726). At a much earlier period, we find the same collocation of names, Zimmah and Joah as father and son. 1Ch_6:20.

zim?a (זמּה, zimmāh, perhaps ?device,? ?plan?): A Gershonite Levite (1Ch_6:20 (Hebrew, verse 5); also in 1Ch_6:42 (Hebrew verse 27); 2Ch_29:12). See Curtis, Chronicles, 130, 134 ff.

(Heb. Zimmah', זַמָּה, purpose; Sept. Ζεμμά v.r. Ζαμμάμ and Ζεμάθ; Vulg. Zemma or Zamma), the name of two or three Levites.
1. A Gershonite, “son” of Jahath and father of Joah (1Ch_6:20); probably the same with the “son” of Shimei and father of Jahath (1Ch_6:42). B.C. post 1874.
2. Father or ancestor of Joah, which latter was a Gershonite in the reign of Hezekiah (2Ch_29:12). B.C. ante 726. At a much earlier period we find the same collocation of names, Zimmah and Joah as father and son (1Ch_6:20). This is but an evidence of the frequent recurrence of the same names in a family (comp. “Mahath the son of Amasai” in 2Ch_29:12 with the same in 1Ch_6:35; “Joel the son of Azariah” in 2Ch_29:12 ‘and 1Ch_6:36; and “Kish the son of Abdi” in 2Ch_29:12 with “Kishi the son of Abdi” in 1Ch_6:44).
