(Hebrew Achochi', אֲחוֹחַי; Sept. παράδελφος, Ἀχωϊ v της [v. r. Ἀωϊ v της ], Ἀχωχί, Ἀχώρ [v. r. Ἀχωνί ], Ἀωθί [v. r. Χώχ, Ε᾿χώχ ]), an epithet applied to Dodo or Dodai, one of the captains under Solomon ( 1 Chronicles 27:4), and his son Eleazar, one of David's three chief warriors ( 2 Samuel 23:9; 1 Chronicles 11:12), as well as to Zalmon or Ilai, another of his body-guard ( 2 Samuel 23:28; 1 Chronicles 11:29); doubtless from their descent from Ahoah (See Ahoah) ( 1 Chronicles 8:4) the Benjamite (comp. 1 Chronicles 11:26).
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [4]
a -hō´hı̄t ( אחוחי , 'ăḥoḥı̄ ): A patronymic employed in connection with the descendants of Ahoah (which see) such as Doda ( 2 Samuel 23:9 ) or Dodo ( 1 Chronicles 11:12 ), Ilai (29) or Zalmon ( 2 Samuel 23:28 ), and also Eleazar, son of Dodo ( 1 Chronicles 11:12 ). The family must have been fond of military affairs, for all the above were officers in David and Solomon's armies.
