Definition
A biblical name and character from the Book of Job; also a name used in various historical contexts.
Etymology
From Hebrew Eliyahu, meaning 'My God is Yahweh,' composed of El (God) + yahu (Yahweh). It appears in the Hebrew Bible as a young man who speaks in the Book of Job.
Kelly Says
Elihu is one of the most sophisticated speakers in the Book of Job, yet he's barely remembered compared to Job himself—a reminder that biblical narratives often marginalize their most rational voices in favor of emotional drama.
