AMMIHUD ă mī’ hŭd (עַמִּיה֑וּד, my kinsman is glorious). 1. The father of Elishama, head of the tribe of Ephraim during the sojourn in the wilderness (Num 1:10; 2:18; 7:48, 53; 10:22); great-grandfather of Joshua (1 Chron 7:26).

2. A Simeonite; the father of Shemuel; appointed by Moses to help divide the land of Canaan (Num 34:20).

3. A Naphtalite, father of Pedahel; appointed by Moses to help divide the land of Canaan (Num 34:28).

4. The father of Talmai, king of Geshur, to whom Absalom fled after the murder of his brother Amnon (2 Sam 13:37). The Kethibh of this verse reads “Ammihur,” but the reading “Ammihud,” followed by the KJV and the RSV, is favored.
