1. Ahijah / Ahiyah (personal name) — Proper masculine name meaning 'brother of Yah(weh),' appearing in two spelling variants: אֲחִיָּה (Ahijah/Achiyah) and אֲחִיָּהוּ (Ahijah/Achiyahu). Refers to several individuals: (1) Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet who tore Jeroboam's garment into twelve pieces to symbolize the division of the kingdom (1 Kgs 11:29-30; 14:2-18); (2) Ahijah son of Ahitub, a priest at Shiloh bearing the ephod during Saul's reign (1 Sam 14:3, 18); (3) Various other men in genealogical and administrative lists (1 Chr 2:25; 8:7; 11:36; 26:20; Neh 10:26). The spelling variants אֲחִיָּה and אֲחִיָּהוּ are simply orthographic alternations of the same theophoric name, not distinct senses. Multilingual glosses render as Achiyah/Achiyahu/Ahijah (arb: أَخِيَّا, hin: अहीयाह). 24×
