Shallum was his son
The name "Shallum" is derived from the Hebrew root "שָׁלוֹם" (shalom), meaning peace or completeness. In the context of the genealogies in 1 Chronicles, Shallum represents a continuation of the lineage of Simeon, one of the tribes of Israel. The mention of Shallum as a son emphasizes the importance of family heritage and the passing down of faith and tradition. Historically, names like Shallum were often given with the hope that the individual would embody the peace and wholeness that the name signifies. This reflects a broader biblical theme where names are not just identifiers but carry prophetic or aspirational significance.

Mibsam his son
"Mibsam" is a name that appears in several genealogical records in the Bible, and it is believed to mean "sweet smell" or "fragrance" in Hebrew. This name could symbolize the pleasantness or favor that this individual brought to his family or community. In a spiritual sense, the idea of a "sweet smell" is often associated with offerings that are pleasing to God, as seen in various sacrificial contexts throughout the Old Testament. Mibsam's inclusion in the genealogy underscores the notion that each generation contributes uniquely to the legacy of God's people, much like a pleasing aroma that enhances the environment.

and Mishma his son
The name "Mishma" is derived from the Hebrew root "שָׁמַע" (shama), meaning to hear or listen. This name suggests an emphasis on obedience and attentiveness to God's word. In the biblical narrative, hearing is often linked with understanding and responding to God's commands. Mishma's place in the genealogy serves as a reminder of the importance of listening to and following divine guidance. Historically, the act of listening was crucial in a culture where oral tradition was the primary means of transmitting knowledge and faith. Mishma's name, therefore, highlights the value of being receptive to God's voice and the wisdom of previous generations.
