SHEMER . 1 . The owner of the hill purchased by Omri ( 1 Kings 16:24 ). 2 . A Merarite ( 1 Chronicles 6:31 (46)). 3 . An Asherite ( 1 Chronicles 7:34 , called in 1 Chronicles 7:32 Shomer). 4 . A Benjamite ( 1 Chronicles 8:12 ). The Heb. MSS show here some confusion between r and d as the final letter of the name. The AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ( Shamed ) and RV [Note: Revised Version.] ( Shemed ) retain the reading of the Geneva version, which is based on the Vulg. [Note: Vulgate.] Samad .
