Ehud
Proper name designating a specific individual in ancient Israelite genealogies: 'Ehud.' In context, the name likely conveys the idea of 'unity' or being 'joined together,' though for personal names, the meaning often operates as a connotation rather than an explicit quality. The term does not function as a common noun or adjective in the Hebrew Bible, but is used exclusively as a personal name.
