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). The name "Ehud" is probably a shorter form of "Abihud."
