Zurishaddai; 'my rock is Shaddai,' father of Shelumiel of Simeon
Zurishaddai is a theophoric compound name meaning 'my rock is Shaddai (the Almighty).' He is known solely as the father of Shelumiel, the tribal leader who represented Simeon during the wilderness census and tabernacle dedication. Like Zuar for Issachar, the name appears exclusively in the formulaic expression 'Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai' across five passages in Numbers (1:6; 2:12; 7:36, 41; 10:19). The name itself testifies to the ancient Israelite practice of embedding divine titles within personal names.
Senses
1. sense 1 — The proper name of Shelumiel's father from the tribe of Simeon, meaning 'my rock is Shaddai.'
