Abihud
There are two biblical characters named Abihud.
- One of the sons of Bela, the son of Benjamin; called also Ahihud (1 Chronicles 8:3,7).
- A son or grandson of Zerubbabel and father of Eliakim (Matthew 1:13, "Abiud"), possibly the same as Obadiah (1 Chronicles 3:21).
The name may also occasionally be romanized as Abioud (Greek) or 'Abiyhuwd (Hebrew).
Meaning
The name "Abihud" means "the (divine) father is glory", according to Cheyne and Black (1899).[1] The name "Ehud" is probably a shorter form of "Abihud."[2]
