Shimeron
of Shimron
Proper noun referring primarily to (1) a personal name of an Israelite individual and (2) a city located within the territory allotted to the tribe of Zebulun in the land of Canaan. The meaning of the name, if derived from its underlying root, carries connotations of 'guardianship' or 'watchfulness,' but as a proper noun it mainly functions as a name without a descriptive sense in most contexts.
