jē̇-hū´di (יהוּדי, yehuÌ„dhı̄, properly “a Jewâ€): An officer of King Jehoiakim (, , ). He was sent by the princes to summon Baruch to read the roll containing Jeremiah's prophecies to them; he afterward read them to the king, who destroyed them. His name is noteworthy, as also is that of his grandfather Cushi (i.e. “Ethiopianâ€), and the two are said to point to a foreign origin.
