HODAVIAH

(Heb. hôḏawyâ, hôḏawyāhû) (also HODEVAH)

1. A son of Elioenai and descendant of Zerubbabel (1 Chr. 3:24).

2. The head of a family in the half-tribe of Manasseh (1 Chr. 5:24).

3. A Benjaminite, the son of Hassenuah (1 Chr. 9:7). Some scholars consider the name here to be a corruption of Heb. wîhûḏâ, in which case he would be the same as Joed in the parallel list of Neh. 11:7.

4. A Levite whose descendants returned from the Exile with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:40). At Neh. 7:43 he is called Hodevah. Heb. “sons of Judah” at Ezra 3:9 (so RSV) should read “sons of Hodaviah” (so NRSV) since the reference is to Levites.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
