from Simeon
The tribe of Simeon is one of the twelve tribes of Israel, named after Simeon, the second son of Jacob and Leah. The name "Simeon" is derived from the Hebrew word "Shimon," meaning "to hear" or "to be heard." This reflects Leah's declaration in Genesis 29:33, where she expresses that the Lord has heard that she was unloved. Historically, the tribe of Simeon was known for its fierce warriors and played a significant role in the early conquests of the Promised Land. The mention of Simeon here signifies the inclusion and importance of each tribe in the census and the organization of the Israelite community.

Shelumiel
The name "Shelumiel" is of Hebrew origin, meaning "friend of God" or "at peace with God." This name reflects a deep spiritual connection and a sense of divine favor. Shelumiel, as a leader of the tribe of Simeon, would have been responsible for representing his tribe in matters of governance and warfare. His name suggests a person who is in harmony with God's will, an essential quality for leadership among God's chosen people.

son of Zurishaddai
"Zurishaddai" is a Hebrew name meaning "my rock is the Almighty" or "the Almighty is my rock." This name emphasizes the strength and protection found in God, portraying a lineage that acknowledges God's sovereignty and power. The mention of Zurishaddai highlights the importance of heritage and the passing down of faith and reliance on God from one generation to the next. In the context of the Israelite community, this lineage underscores the foundational belief in God as the ultimate source of strength and stability.
