Easton's Bible Dictionary
Shulamite

The same, as some think, with "Shunammite," from "Shunem:" otherwise, the import of the word is uncertain (Song of Solomon 6:13; R.V., "Shulammite").


Hitchcock's Names Dictionary
Shulamite

peaceable; perfect; that recompenses


Smith's Bible Dictionary
Shulamite, the

one of the personages in the poem of Solomon's (Solomon 6:13) The name denotes a woman belonging to a place called Shulem, which is probably the same as Shunem. [SHUNEM] If, then, Shulamite and Shunammite are equivalent, we may conjecture that the Shunammite who was the object of Solomon's passion was Abishag, the most lovely girl of her day, and at the time of David's death the most prominent person at Jerusalem.
