Shunem       two resting-places, a little village in the tribe of Issachar,       to the north of Jezreel and south of Mount Gilboa (Josh. 19:18),       where the Philistines encamped when they came against Saul (1       Sam. 28:4), and where Elisha was hospitably entertained by a       rich woman of the place. On the sudden death of this woman's son       she hastened to Carmel, 20 miles distant across the plain, to       tell Elisha, and to bring him with her to Shunem. There, in the       "prophet's chamber," the dead child lay; and Elisha entering it,       shut the door and prayed earnestly: and the boy was restored to       life (2 Kings 4:8-37). This woman afterwards retired during the       famine to the low land of the Philistines; and on returning a       few years afterwards, found her house and fields in the       possession of a stranger. She appealed to the king at Samaria,       and had them in a somewhat remarkable manner restored to her       (comp. 2 Kings 8:1-6).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Simeon       hearing. (1.) The second son of Jacob by Leah (Gen. 29:33). He       was associated with Levi in the terrible act of vengeance       against Hamor and the Shechemites (34:25, 26). He was detained       by Joseph in Egypt as a hostage (42:24). His father, when dying,       pronounced a malediction against him (49:5-7). The words in the       Authorized Version (49:6), "they digged down a wall," ought to       be, as correctly rendered in the Revised Version, "they houghed       an ox."                (2.) An aged saint who visited the temple when Jesus was being       presented before the Lord, and uttered lofty words of       thankgiving and of prophecy (Luke 2:29-35).                (3.) One of the ancestors of Joseph (Luke 3:30).                (4.) Surnamed Niger, i.e., "black," perhaps from his dark       complexion, a teacher of some distinction in the church of       Antioch (Acts 13:1-3). It has been supposed that this was the       Simon of Cyrene who bore Christ's cross. Note the number of       nationalities represented in the church at Antioch.                (5.) James (Acts 15:14) thus designates the apostle Peter       (q.v.).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Simon       the abbreviated form of Simeon. (1.) One of the twelve apostles,       called the Canaanite (Matt. 10:4; Mark 3:18). This word       "Canaanite" does not mean a native of Canaan, but is derived       from the Syriac word Kanean or Kaneniah, which was the name of a       Jewish sect. The Revised Version has "Cananaean;" marg., "or       Zealot" He is also called "Zelotes" (Luke 6:15; Acts 1:13; R.V.,       "the Zealot"), because previous to his call to the apostleship       he had been a member of the fanatical sect of the Zealots. There       is no record regarding him.                (2.) The father of Judas Iscariot (John 6:71; 13:2, 26).                (3.) One of the brothers of our Lord (Matt. 13:55; Mark 6:3).                (4.) A Pharisee in whose house "a woman of the city which was       a sinner" anointed our Lord's feet with ointment (Luke 7:36-38).                (5.) A leper of Bethany, in whose house Mary anointed our       Lord's head with ointment "as he sat at meat" (Matt. 26:6-13;       Mark 14:3-9).                (6.) A Jew of Cyrene, in North Africa, then a province of       Libya. A hundred thousand Jews from Palestine had been settled       in this province by Ptolemy Soter (B.C. 323-285), where by this       time they had greatly increased in number. They had a synagogue       in Jerusalem for such of their number as went thither to the       annual feasts. Simon was seized by the soldiers as the       procession wended its way to the place of crucifixion as he was       passing by, and the heavy cross which Christ from failing       strength could no longer bear was laid on his shoulders. Perhaps       they seized him because he showed sympathy with Jesus. He was       the "father of Alexander and Rufus" (Matt. 27:32). Possibly this       Simon may have been one of the "men of Cyrene" who preached the       word to the Greeks (Acts 11:20).                (7.) A sorcerer of great repute for his magical arts among the       Samaritans (Acts 8:9-11). He afterwards became a professed       convert to the faith under the preaching of Philip the deacon       and evangelist (12, 13). His profession was, however, soon found       to be hollow. His conduct called forth from Peter a stern rebuke       (8:18-23). From this moment he disappears from the Church's       history. The term "Simony," as denoting the purchase for money       of spiritual offices, is derived from him.                (8.) A Christian at Joppa, a tanner by trade, with whom Peter       on one occasion lodged (Acts 9:43).                (9.) Simon Peter (Matt. 4:18). See {PETER}.
