[Facts] Re: meaning of Shiloh
I keep seeing the meaning "peaceful" or "peace" in books and on sites, etc.

There's mixing with Shalom ("peace") and Shlomit (Salome, "peaceful"). It's really easy to see the difference though, that's why we think most sites & books are terribly bad.

I don't think, this is due to a confusion between Shiloh and Shalom; obviously the Aramaic word "shele" (peaceful) is in the place-name SHILOH, and this is where "peace" comes in. As I wrote, the Hebrew word is "shalev".Andy ;—)
