- H1935 (הוֹד, hod): Meaning "splendor" or "majesty," reflecting the divine attribute.

Usage: Eliud is a genealogical name found in the New Testament, specifically in the genealogy of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew. It is used to trace the lineage of Jesus, emphasizing His rightful place in the line of David and Abraham, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah.

Cultural and Historical Background: In Jewish culture, genealogies were significant for establishing identity, heritage, and legitimacy, especially concerning the Messiah. The genealogy in Matthew serves to connect Jesus to the promises made to Abraham and David, underscoring His role as the fulfillment of God's covenant with Israel. Eliud is one of the lesser-known figures in this lineage, highlighting the continuity of God's plan through generations.
