Old Testament
Dodavahu
A prophet from Mareshah who condemned King Jehoshaphat for his alliance with Ahaziah of Israel.
Dodavahu was the son of Eliezer and a prophet who delivered a divine message of judgment against King Jehoshaphat. He prophesied that the Lord would destroy the king's works because he had joined forces with the wicked King Ahaziah of Israel to build ships at Ezion-geber. His brief appearance serves as a reminder of the biblical principle that God holds leaders accountable for their alliances with those who oppose His ways.
