Shiza
Who he was
Shiza is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 11:42 as the father of Adina, who was one of King David's mighty warriors. Adina is described as a chief of the Reubenites, indicating his leadership position within the tribe of Reuben. The passage lists several of David's mighty men, who were known for their bravery, military prowess, and loyalty to the king. As the father of one of these esteemed warriors, Shiza was likely a respected figure within the Reubenite community. However, no further details about Shiza's life or role are provided in the biblical text, as the focus is on his son Adina's service to King David.
