Who this is

Two men named Sheva appear in the Old Testament: a son of Caleb in the tribal genealogy of Judah (1 Chronicles 2:49), and one of David's royal scribes or secretaries (2 Samuel 20:25), likely the same official called Seraiah or Shisha elsewhere in the parallel lists of David's officials. Nothing more is recorded of either.
