Elisha in Numbers 2
ee-LYE-shuh
This person shows up in Numbers 2:18: ““On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their divisions: and the prince of the children of Ephraim…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
Numbers 2:18
““On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their divisions: and the prince of the children of Ephraim shall be Elishama the son of Ammihud.”
