Weapons001003001001020
This lexeme's genuine tagged occurrences (e.g. Genesis 10:24, 11:12-14) are overwhelmingly the proper personal name Shelah, a descendant of Shem in the Genesis genealogies; this Weapons domain code is bundle-shared from the fact-packet's data and carries no tagged occurrence of שֶׁלַח (Shelach, H7974) independently attesting a weapons sense — a personal name is not itself a military-equipment term.
People001001003
שֶׁלַח (Shelach, H7974) is the personal name "Shelah," a son of Judah, as in occurrences glossed "Shelah." As a proper name it does not independently attest a general "People" classification distinct from what is recorded for its bundle partner; that classification is bundle-shared with שֶׁלַח (shelach, H7973) in the source data and is not independently confirmed by this lexeme's own occurrences standing alone.
Waterbodies001002008
This lexeme's genuine tagged occurrences illustrate the proper personal name Shelah (Genesis 10:24; 11:12-14), not a body of water; this Waterbodies domain code is bundle-shared and carries no tagged occurrence of שֶׁלַח (Shelach, H7974) independently attesting a waterbody sense of its own — the similarly-spelled Pool of Siloam (a distinct term) is not this Strong's number.
Names of People003001007
Shelah, son of Arpachshad and father of Eber in the genealogy from Shem to Abraham (Genesis 10:24, 11:12, 11:13, 11:14, 11:15).
