# Shemer (H8106A): A Biblical Proper Name Based on the lexical data provided, Shemer (שֶ֫מֶר) is a proper noun appearing twice in the Hebrew Bible. The term functions as a personal name rather than a common word with semantic range or abstract meaning. With only two occurrences in biblical literature, Shemer represents a figure or figures of limited textual prominence, though the dual attestation suggests historical or genealogical significance sufficient to warrant inclusion in the biblical record. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry regarding the narrative or genealogical context of these two appearances, the specific identity and role of Shemer cannot be determined from the data provided. The minimal frequency of occurrence (2 times) indicates this was either a minor biblical figure or a name that appeared in a concentrated passage rather than distributed throughout multiple books or traditions. To understand Shemer's actual significance—whether as a patriarch, property owner, or other historical actor—would require examination of the biblical passages themselves rather than the lexical entry alone.
