Who this is
Eliud appears only in Matthew's genealogy of Jesus, listed as the son of Achim and the father of Eleazar, several generations before Joseph (Matthew 1:14-15). Like many names in this section of the genealogy, he is otherwise unknown outside this list. His inclusion reflects Matthew's concern to trace an unbroken line from Abraham to Jesus through the royal house of David.
