Information

Elihu

Elihu is a name of Hebrew origin, derived from the Hebrew name אֱלִיהוּ (Elīhū), which means "He is my God" or "My God is He." In the Book of Job in the Hebrew Bible, Elihu is a minor character who speaks extensively, offering a lengthy speech that serves as a bridge between the debates of Job's three friends and God's response from the whirlwind. Elihu is not mentioned elsewhere in the biblical text, and his role is primarily to present a new perspective on theodicy, arguing that suffering is not necessarily a punishment for sin but rather a means of divine correction and education. The name Elihu is also found in other ancient texts, such as the Book of Ezekiel, where it is the name of a priest. In Arabic, the name is translated as إليهو (Elyhu), and in Greek, it appears as Ἐλιού (Eliou). The name has been used in various cultures and religions, often carrying connotations of divine connection and wisdom.
