About Shelomi
Shelomi was the father of Ahihud, who was a leader from the tribe of Asher. In Num.34.27, Ahihud son of Shelomi is appointed as the representative of the tribe of Asher to assist in the division of the land of Canaan among the Israelite tribes. Ahihud's role was to work alongside leaders from the other tribes and with Eleazar the priest and Joshua to allocate the land as an inheritance for the Israelites. Shelomi is mentioned only as Ahihud's father and is not recorded as having any other role or significance.
