Usage: The name Hodiah appears in the context of genealogical records and is used to identify a female member of the Jewish people. It is found in the Old Testament, specifically in the genealogies of the post-exilic community. Context: Hodiah is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Judah. In 1 Chronicles 4:19, Hodiah is identified as the wife of Mered, a descendant of Judah.

The name Hodiah, meaning "praise" or "thanksgiving," reflects a common theme in Hebrew names, which often express a relationship with God or a characteristic of the individual. The mention of Hodiah in the genealogies underscores the significance of women in the biblical narrative, particularly in the context of family and community identity.
