AHOHITE

a-ho'-hit ('achochi):

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.
