Hilkiah () was a Kohen (an Israelite priest) at the time of King Josiah (reigned c. 641–609 BCE).
==Biblical account== His name is mentioned in II Kings. He was the High Priest and is known for finding a lost copy of the Book of the Law at the Temple in Jerusalem at the time that King Josiah commanded that Solomon's Temple be refurbished according to 2 Kings 22:8. His preaching may have helped spur Josiah to return Judah to the worship of Yahweh, God of Israel.
