HULDAH (weasel; an old totem clan-nameso W. R. Smith).The prophetess, wife of Shallum, keeper of the wardrobe, living in a part of Jerusalem called the Mishneh (second quarter), whose advice Josiah sought, by a deputation of his chief ministers, on the alarming discovery of the book of the law in the Temple, in 621 b.c. (2Ki_22:3-20 = 2Ch_34:8-28). Her response was threatening for the nation, in the strain of Jeremiah, while promising exemption to the pious king. Huldah ranks with Deborah and Hannah among the rare women-prophets of the OT.

hul?da (חלדּה, ḥuldāh, ?weasel?; Ὅλδα, Hólda): A prophetess who lived in Jerusalem during the reign of Josiah. She was the wife of Shallum, keeper of the wardrobe, and resided in the ?Mishneh? or second part or quarter of Jerusalem (location unknown). Cheyne says it should read, ?She was sitting in the upper part of the gate of the Old City,? i.e. in a public central place ready to receive any who wished to inquire of Yahweh. He gives no reason for such a change of text. The standing and reputation of Huldah in the city are attested by the fact that she was consulted when the Book of the Law was discovered. The king, high priest, counselors, etc., appealed to her rather than to Jeremiah, and her word was accepted by all as the word of Yahweh (2Ki_22:14-20; 2Ch_34:22-29).

Huldah, or rather Chuldah, wife of Shallum, a prophetess, who, in the reign of Josiah, abode in that part of Jerusalem called the Mishneh, where the book of the Law was discovered by the high-priest Hilkiah. This prophetess was consulted respecting the denunciations which it contained. She then delivered an oracular response of mingled judgment and mercy; declaring the not remote destruction of Jerusalem, but promising Josiah that he should be taken from the world before these evil days came; B.C. 623 (2Ki_22:14-20; 2Ch_34:22-28). Huldah is only known for this circumstance. She was probably at this time the widow of Shallum, a name too common to suggest any information; but he is said to have been grandson of one Harhas, 'keeper of the ward robe,' but whether the priestly or the royal wardrobe is uncertain. If the former, he must have been a Levite, if not a priest. As to her residence, it is said to have been 'in the Mishneh,' which the Auth. Vers. renders 'in the college.' But there is no ground to conclude that any school or college of the prophets is to be understood. The name means 'second' or 'double;' and many of the Jews themselves (as Jarchi states) understood it as the name of the suburb lying between the inner and outer wall of Jerusalem. It is safest to regard it as a proper name denoting some quarter of Jerusalem about which we are not certain, and, accordingly, to translate 'in the Mishneh.'

Huldah
(Hebrew Chuldah', חֻלְדָּה, weasel; Sept. ῎Ολδαν, Josephus Ο᾿λδά, Ant. 10, 4, 2), wife of Shallum, a prophetess, who, in the reign of Josiah, abode in that part of Jerusalem called the Mishneh, where the book of the law was discovered by the high-priest Hilkiah. B.C. 623. This prophetess was consulted respecting the denunciations which it contained. She then delivered an oracular response of mingled judgment and mercy; declaring the not remote destruction of Jerusalem, but promising Josiah that he should be taken from the world before these evil days came (2Ki_22:14-20; 2Ch_21:4). Huldah is only known for this circumstance. She was probably at this time the widow of Shallum, a name too common to suggest any information; he is said to have been keeper of the wardrobe, but whether the priestly or the royal wardrobe is uncertain. If the former, he must have been a Levite, if not a priest. SEE HARHAS. As to her residence בִּמַּשְׁנֶה, in the Mishneh, which the A.V. renders in the college, there is no ground to conclude that any school or college of the prophets is to be understood. The name means second or double; and many of the Jews themselves (as Jarchi states) understood it as the name of the suburb lying between the inner and outer wall of Jerusalem; perhaps 1. q. the lower city, or Acra (q.v.). It is safest to regard it as a proper name denoting some quarter of Jerusalem about which we are not certain, and, accordingly, to translate in the mishneh, for which we have the precedent of the Septuagint, which has ἑν τῇ Μασεν῝. The place of her residence is mentioned probably to show why she, being at hand, was resorted to on this urgent occasion, and not Jeremiah, who was then probably away at his native town Anathoth, or at some more distant place. There were gates of the temple in the middle of the southern wall, called the gates of Huldah (Mishna, tit. Middoth, 1, 3), which, if they were so named from any connection with tile prophetess, may indicate her residence on Ophel. SEE SHALLUM; SEE JOSIAH.
