CUSHI

1. Joab’s messenger sent to David to announce Absalom’s defeat (2 Sm 18:21-32). However, the Hebrew word transliterated “Cushi” should more likely be translated “Cushite.” See Cush (Place).

2. Jehudi’s great-grandfather. Jehudi was a prince in the court of King Jehoiakim of Judah in the time of Jeremiah the prophet (Jer 36:14).

3. Father of the prophet Zephaniah (Zep 1:1).
