Description
Who was Shimri?
Shimri is mentioned in 2Ch.29.13 as one of the Levites who participated in the purification of the temple during the reign of King Hezekiah. He is listed alongside other Levites from the families of Elizaphan and Asaph who responded to Hezekiah's call to consecrate themselves and cleanse the temple. The purification process involved removing all the unclean items from the temple and restoring proper worship practices. As a Levite, Shimri would have had specific duties related to the temple service and played a role in this important religious reform.
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
Places
Where this happens
A person is placed by the events they take part in, and an event has to clear three things to place them: it must say where it happened, that place must be one the gazetteer can put a coordinate on, and the verse must report it rather than foretell, command or ask it. Nothing anchored here clears all three. Where the text names a setting no gazetteer surveys — a vineyard, a palace, a plot of ground — it is left off rather than guessed at; where a place is named only in a prophecy, the map does not draw what was said to be coming as though it had happened; and a place reached only through a relation is not inherited, because standing beside somebody is not being somewhere.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.
