Ahoah, Ahohi, Ahohite

One of Bela’s nine sons, a member of the tribe of Benjamin (1 Chronicles 8:4).

Ahoah’s descendants were called Ahohites, and two of them were among King David’s most effective warriors:

• Dodo (“son of… the Ahohite,” 2 Samuel 23:9; it is spelled “Dodai” in 1 Chronicles 27:4)

• Zalmon the Ahohite (2 Samuel 23:28; he is called “Ilai” in 1 Chronicles 11:29)
