Person

Shimri (son of Hosah)

시므리 (호사의 아들)

Named at 1 Chronicles 26:10: “Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons: Shimri the chief”, and, in WEB’s parentheses, “for though he was not the firstborn, yet his father made him chief”. 26:11 goes on, “Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, and Zechariah the fourth. All the sons and brothers of Hosah were thirteen.” The Korean Revised Version reads 그 장자는 시므리라 시므리는 본래 맏아들이 아니나 그 아비가 장자를 삼았고 (his 장자 was Shimri; Shimri was not the firstborn by birth, but his father made him 장자), with 장자, the word for the eldest son, where WEB reads “chief”.
