Is this person's appearance in the Bible the only evidence we have for their existence, or are there other accounts or archaeological evidence as well?--Robert Merkel 00:02 13 Jul 2003 (UTC)

There is no archeological evidence. I found his name alraedy wikified on King David's entry. You think it should be removed?
Perhaps enter it to David's entry as a sub-entry titled "ancestry"? - Nahum

If his story is told "at length" in the Book of Ruth, a summary of that story and a bit of clarification of his historicity would make a very acceptable wikipedia entry IMO. --Robert Merkel 00:23 13 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I just had a flick through Ruth. He is mentioned only briefly in one passage. I say redirect the article to David and mention David'd ancestry there. --Robert Merkel 00:26 13 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Ok, Done. Nahum 00:52 13 Jul 2003 (UTC)

"Yishai" actually means "God's gift." "Shai" is another word for gift in Hebrew (still used today), and the "Yi" prefix is another name for God.

Disambig may be necessary. There was a sitcom called Jesse starring Christina Applegate. Mike H 05:11, Aug 25, 2004 (UTC)

They could be a chance someone could be out there with a new stuff. I mean the game has not not been released yet. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.176.197.219 (talk) 22:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC).
