Usage: Eliam is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Eliam is a biblical figure mentioned in the context of King David's reign. He is identified as the father of Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite, and later, King David. This connection is found in 2 Samuel 11:3, where Bathsheba is referred to as "the daughter of Eliam." Eliam is also noted as the son of Ahithophel, David's counselor, as mentioned in 2 Samuel 23:34. This lineage places Eliam within the context of David's court and highlights the familial ties that played a significant role in the narrative of David's kingship. The name Eliam, meaning "God of the people," reflects a theophoric element common in Hebrew names, indicating a relationship or dedication to God.
