Shilhim

SHILHIM (shĭl'hîm, Heb. shilhîm). A town in southern Judah in Joshua’s time (Josh.15.32).

SHILHIM shĭl’ hĭm (שִׁלְחִ֖ים). A city assigned to Judah as a part of its territorial possession in Canaan (Josh 15:32). Sharuhen (19:6) and Shaaraim (1 Chron 4:31) are most prob. identical. The difference in spelling between Shilhim and Sharuhen may be explained linguistically as the interchange of “l” and “r,” observable in certain Sem. languages. See Sharuhen.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (1915)
