Tikvah

Divided Kingdom > · H8616G
Old Testament

Tikvah, also known as Tokhath, was the father of Shallum and the father-in-law of Huldah the prophetess.

Tikvah (also spelled Tokhath) was the father of Shallum, the husband of the prophetess Huldah, who was consulted when the Book of the Law was discovered in the temple during King Josiah's reign (2 Kings 22:14; 2 Chronicles 34:22). He was the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe. The discovery of the law book and Huldah's subsequent prophecy triggered Josiah's extensive cultic reforms, making Tikvah's connection to the prophetic household historically significant in the context of Judah's religious history.
