Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Shilchi, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts.

Usage: The name Shilchi appears in genealogical records within the Old Testament, specifically in the context of the tribe of Judah.

Context: Shilchi is mentioned in the genealogical listings of the tribe of Judah. The name appears in 1 Chronicles 4:22, where it is listed among the descendants of Shelah, one of the sons of Judah. The passage reads: "And Jokim, and the men of Cozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who ruled in Moab, and Jashubi-Lehem. (These records are ancient.)" (BSB). Shilchi is noted as one of the descendants, indicating his place within the broader family lineage of Judah. The genealogical context suggests that Shilchi was part of the post-exilic community, contributing to the restoration and continuity of the tribe's heritage. The name itself, derived from the root meaning "to send," may imply a role or characteristic associated with being sent or dispatched, although specific details about Shilchi's life or deeds are not provided in the biblical text.
