Ishvi, name of (1) a son of Asher and (2) a son of Saul
Ishvi appears as the name of two biblical figures: one of Asher's sons who founded a clan, and one of Saul's sons. Textual scholars suggest that the second Ishvi may be an alternate form of Ish-bosheth, Saul's son who briefly ruled after Saul's death. The name appears in tribal genealogies and royal family lists, preserved with minor spelling variations across parallel biblical passages.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Ishvi son of Asher appears in Jacob's family genealogy going down to Egypt (Gen 46:17), giving his name to the Ishvite clan in the wilderness census (Num 26:44), with parallel records in Chronicles (1Chr 7:30). A second Ishvi appears as Saul's son (1Sam 14:49), though scholars note that Chronicles lists Ish-bosheth/Eshbaal instead in this position (1Chr 8:33; 9:39), suggesting possible textual confusion or alternate names. The Greek renders variously as Iesoul, Iesoui, Ioul, while Spanish y-Yishvi, French et-Ishvi, and German und-Jischwi preserve phonetic approximations with conjunction markers. 4×
