Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from יְהוּדָה (Yehudah), meaning "Judah."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the proper noun Jehudi, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. However, the general term for "Jew" in Greek is Ἰουδαῖος (Ioudaios), which corresponds to Strong's Greek Number 2453. Usage: The name Jehudi appears in the context of a specific individual in the Hebrew Bible, rather than as a general term for a Jew or Judahite. Context: Jehudi is mentioned in the Book of Jeremiah as a servant of King Jehoiakim of Judah. He is the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi. Jehudi is noted for his role in the narrative where he is sent by the princes to fetch the scroll of Jeremiah's prophecies from Baruch, the scribe. This event is recorded in Jeremiah 36:14-23. Jehudi reads the scroll to King Jehoiakim, who subsequently cuts it with a scribe's knife and throws it into the fire, demonstrating his rejection of Jeremiah's message. Jehudi's involvement in this episode highlights the tension between the prophetic message and the royal authority during this period in Judah's history.
