The name Elishama means "God has heard" in Hebrew, reflecting a common theme of divine attention and response in biblical narratives.<br><br>1. <b>Elishama, the Son of Ammihud</b>: Elishama, son of Ammihud, is most prominently mentioned as a leader of the tribe of Ephraim during the wilderness period. He is listed among the leaders who assisted Moses in the census of the Israelites. <a href="/numbers/1-10.htm">Numbers 1:10</a> states, "from the sons of Joseph: from Ephraim, Elishama son of Ammihud; from Manasseh, Gamaliel son of Pedahzur." Elishama's role as a leader of Ephraim highlights the significance of his tribe, which was one of the most prominent tribes in Israel, often associated with leadership and strength.<br><br>2. <b>Elishama, the Scribe</b>: Another Elishama is mentioned in the context of the reign of King Jehoiakim of Judah. In <a href="/jeremiah/36-12.htm">Jeremiah 36:12</a>, Elishama is identified as a scribe in the royal court: "he went down to the scribe’s chamber in the king’s palace, where all the officials were sitting: Elishama the scribe, Delaiah son of Shemaiah, Elnathan son of Achbor, Gemariah son of Shaphan, Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the other officials." This Elishama played a role in the events surrounding the prophet Jeremiah's scroll, which was read in the presence of the king and his officials, leading to its eventual destruction by the king.<br><br>3. <b>Elishama, the Descendant of David</b>: In the genealogies of the tribe of Judah, Elishama is listed as a descendant of King David. <a href="/1_chronicles/3-6.htm">1 Chronicles 3:6</a> mentions him as one of David's sons: "Ibhar, Elishama, Eliphelet." This Elishama is part of the royal lineage, underscoring the continuation of David's line, which holds messianic significance in Christian theology.<br><br>4. <b>Elishama, the Priest</b>: In <a href="/1_chronicles/15-24.htm">1 Chronicles 15:24</a>, an Elishama is mentioned as one of the priests who blew trumpets before the Ark of God during its transportation to Jerusalem: "Shebaniah, Jehoshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer—the priests—were to blow the trumpets before the ark of God. Obed-edom and Jehiah were also to be gatekeepers for the ark." This Elishama's involvement in the religious ceremonies highlights the importance of worship and the centrality of the Ark in Israel's spiritual life.<br><br>The name Elishama, therefore, appears in various contexts, each contributing to the rich tapestry of Israel's history and religious life. Whether as a tribal leader, a royal scribe, a descendant of David, or a priest, the individuals bearing this name reflect the diverse roles and responsibilities within the covenant community of Israel.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Elishama</span><p>God hearing<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Elishama</span><p>(<i>whom God hears</i>). <ol> <li>The "prince" or "captain" of the tribe of Ephraim in the wilderness of Sinai.
