Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863
shil?hı̄ (שׁלחי, shilḥı̄): Father of Jehoshaphat's mother (1Ki_22:42 = 2Ch_20:31; Codex Vaticanus and Codex Alexandrinus in 2 Chronicles, Σαλεί, Saleı́, Codex Vaticanus in 1 Kings, Σεμεεί, Semeeı́; Codex Alexandrinus in 1 Kings, Σαλαλά, Salalá; Lucian in both, Σελεεί, Seleeı́). Cheyne (Encyclopaedia Biblica, article ?Shilhi?) ventures the supposition that ?Shilhi? is a misreading for ?Shilhim? (Jos_15:32), and is therefore the name of place rather than that of a person; he holds it to be the name of the birthplace of Azubah, the king's mother.
