Strong's Lexicon Shelemyah or shelemyahu: Shelemiah Original Word: שֶׁלֶמְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots שָׁלוֹם (shalom, meaning "peace") and יָהּ (Yah, a shortened form of Yahweh), meaning "Yahweh is peace" or "Yahweh has recompensed." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Shelemyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, names with similar meanings or functions in the Greek New Testament might include those that incorporate "peace" or "God" elements. Usage: The name Shelemiah, or Shelemyahu, is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to several individuals, primarily of priestly or Levitical lineage. The name signifies a relationship with God characterized by peace or recompense, reflecting a divine blessing or favor. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The use of "Yah" in Shelemyah's name highlights a connection to Yahweh, the covenantal God of Israel. This reflects the cultural importance of invoking God's name as a part of one's identity, especially among those serving in religious capacities.
