Ishi:
(salutary).
(1.) A man of the descendants of Judah, son of Appaim (1 Chronicles 2:31) one of the great house of Hezron.
(2.) In a subsequent genealogy of Judah we find another Ishi, with a son Zoheth (1 Chronicles 4:20).
(3.) Head of a family of the tribe of Simeon (1 Chronicles 4:42).
(4.) One of the heads of the tribe of Manasseh on the east of Jordan (1 Chronicles 5:24).
(5.) (My husband.) This word occurs in Hosea 2:16. It is the Israelite term, in opposition to Baali, the Canaanite term, with the same meaning, though with a significance of its own.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
