Shilhi:
Shilhim, bough; weapon; armor
Shilhi:
shil'-hi (shilchi): Father of Jehoshaphat's mother (1Ki 22:42 =2Ch 20:31; Codex Vaticanus and Codex Alexandrinus in 2 Chronicles, Salei, Codex Vaticanus in 1 Kings, Semeei; Codex Alexandrinus in 1 Kings, Salala; Lucian in both, Seleei). Cheyne (Encyclopaedia Biblica, article "Shilhi") ventures the supposition that "Shilhi" is a misreading for "Shilhim" (Jos 15:32), and is therefore the name of place rather than that of a person; he holds it to be the name of the birthplace of Azubah, the king's mother.
Shilhi:
(armed) the father of Azubah the mother of Jehoshaphat (1 Kings 22:42; 2 Chronicles 20:31). (B.C. before 946)
