<p> (Hebrews Dodo', דּוֹדוֹ, ''Amatory'' ; but, according to Fü rst, an abbreviation of [[Dodavah]] ), the name of three men. </p> <p> '''1.''' (Sept. πατράδελφος αὐτοῦ v.r. πατὴρ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ; Vulg. ''Patruus Ahimelech'' , both apparently as a rendering of "Ahohite" inserted.) A descendant of Issachar, father of Phuah, and grandfather of the judge Tola (&nbsp;Judges 10:1). B.C. considerably ante 1319. </p> <p> '''2.''' (Sept. Δουδί, Δωδαϊ v; Vulg. ''Patruus Ejus'' .) An Ahohite (q.v.), father of Eleazar, who was one of David's three special heroes (&nbsp;2 Samuel 23:9, margin; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 11:12). B.C. ante 1046. He seems to be the same with the DODAI mentioned in &nbsp;1 Chronicles 27:4, as commander of the fourth monthly division of the royal troops under David. This latter form of the name occurs in the [[Hebrew]] text of &nbsp;2 Samuel 23:9 (דֹּדֹי ), and is favored by the Sept. as well as by [[Josephus]] ([[Ant]] . 7:12, 4, Δώδειος ); and is believed by Kennicott (''Dissertation'' , page 134), who has examined these lists with great minuteness, to be the correct one. The [[Jewish]] tradition (Jerome, ''Qu. Hebr.'' on &nbsp;1 Chronicles 11:12) was that Dodo was the brother of Jesse. </p> <p> '''3.''' (Sept. Δουσὶ πατράδελφος αὐτοῦ, and Δωδωαί v.r. Δωδωέ; Vulg. ''Patruus Jus'' .) A Bethlehemite, and father of the [[Elhanan]] who was one of David's thirty heroes (&nbsp;2 Samuel 23:24; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 11:26). B.C. ante 1046. </p>
