father of Hodiah

The unnamed father of Hodiah the Judahite is implied in 1 Chronicles 4:19, which records that 'the sons of the wife of Hodiah' included Naham. The passage is difficult and the exact genealogical relationships are uncertain in the Hebrew text, but this man fathered both Hodiah and Naham, who appear in the genealogical records of the tribe of Judah associated with the Maacathites and the Eshtemoa region in the southern highlands.
