Usage: Dodavah is used as a proper noun, specifically as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Dodavah is mentioned in the context of the reign of King Jehoshaphat of Judah. He is identified as the father of Eliezer, a prophet who prophesied against Jehoshaphat's alliance with Ahaziah, king of Israel.

The account of Dodavah and his son Eliezer is found in 2 Chronicles 20:37, where Eliezer, son of Dodavah of Mareshah, prophesies against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have made an alliance with Ahaziah, the LORD has destroyed your works." As a result, the ships were wrecked and unable to set sail to trade.
