Shelemiah was the father of Nethaniah who was father of Jehudi, a man mentioned in Jer 36:14. When Jeremiah's scribe Baruch read the prophet's scroll in the temple, the officials sent Jehudi to retrieve the scroll. Jehudi then read the scroll to the officials in the chamber of Elishama the scribe. Shelemiah's role is limited to being identified as Jehudi's father, and no other details are given about his life.
