Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from Hebrew origin אֱלִיהוּד (Elihud)

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The name Eliud is related to the Hebrew name אֱלִיהוּד (Elihud), which does not have a direct Strong's Hebrew entry but is composed of elements found in other Hebrew names, such as אֵל (El, Strong's H410) meaning "God" and יָהוּד (Yehud, related to Judah, Strong's H3063).

Usage: The name Eliud appears in the genealogy of Jesus Christ as recorded in the New Testament.

Context: Eliud is a figure mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus Christ, specifically in the Gospel of Matthew. He is listed as an ancestor of Jesus, situated in the lineage that traces the legal descent of Jesus through Joseph, His earthly father. The genealogy in Matthew 1:14-15 states: "Azor the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, Achim the father of Eliud, Eliud the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob." This passage highlights Eliud as part of the Davidic line, emphasizing the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah's lineage. The genealogical record serves to establish Jesus' legitimate claim to the throne of David, underscoring His role as the promised Messiah. Eliud's mention, though brief, contributes to the broader narrative of God's redemptive plan through history, culminating in the birth of Jesus Christ.
