shḗ - mā´a , shem´ā́ - a ( השׁמעה , ha - shemā‛āh ; Codex Vaticanus Ἀμά , Amá , Codex Alexandrinus Σαμαά , Samaá , Lucian, Ἀσμά , Asmá ): A B enjamite, who was the father, according to the Massoretic Text, of Ahiezer and Joash; but according to the Septuagint υἰός , huiós = בּן , ( ben ) instead of בּני , ( benē ) of Joash alone ( 1 Chronicles 12:3 ). The original text may have read יהשׁמע בּן , ben yehōshāmā‛ (compare הושׁמע , hōshāmā‛ , of 1 Chronicles 3:18 ); then a dittography of the following ,ה ( h ) caused the error (Curtis, ICC ).
