Reference: Shebna
Hastings
A major-domo or palace-governor of king Hezekiah, against whom is directed one of the recorded utterances of Isaiah (Isa 22:15-25). The prophetic denunciation appears to have found its fulfilment in Shebna's degradation to the office of 'scribe' or secretary, and the elevation of Eliakim (wh. see) to the post of palace-governor (2Ki 18:18,26-27; 19:2 = Isa 36:3,11; 37:2). Shebna was in all probability a foreigner.

Behold, the LORD will carry thee away in a hard captivity and will surely cover thy face. He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country, there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall come to an end, the shame of the house of thy Lord. And I will drive thee from thy place, and he shall pull thee down from thy state. And it shall come to pass in that day that I will call my slave Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: And I will clothe him with thy robe and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand, and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the sons and the grandsons, all the vessels of small quantity, from the cups to drink from even unto all the instruments of music.
