Person
Shemida
A son of Gilead in the tribe of Manasseh, ancestor of the Shemidaite clan listed in Numbers, Joshua, and Chronicles.
Who is this?
Shemida was a son of (or counted as a descendant of through Gilead) and gave his name to a recognized clan within the tribe of Manasseh, the Shemidaites. He is listed in the second wilderness census in Numbers 26:32, in the tribal territory allocation of Joshua 17:2, and in the genealogy of 1 Chronicles 7:19, where his sons Ahian, , Likhi, and Aniam are named. These consistent mentions across three books confirm him as a genuine tribal ancestor whose family held a defined portion of Manasseh's territory.
