Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
Senaah . The children of Senaah, or more correctly Hassenaah , were a clan or family who, according to Ezra 2:35 , Nehemiah 7:38 , 1Es 5:23 [ Sanaas ], were among the exiles of the first Restoration under Zerub., and had a share in re-building the walls ( Nehemiah 3:3 ). They are elsewhere unknown, unless they should be identified with Hassenuah of Benjamin ( 1 Chronicles 9:7 , Nehemiah 11:9 ). The latter would then be the correct reading. Other conjectures are less probable.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [2]
Sen'a-ah. (Thorny).
1. The "children, (that is, the inhabitants), of Senaah" are enumerated among the "people of Israel," who returned from the captivity with Zerubbabel. Ezra 2:35; Nehemiah 7:38. (B.C. 536).
2. The Magdal Senna of Eusebius and Jerome denotes a town seven miles north of Jericho ("Senna").
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
Ezra 2:35; Nehemiah 7:38; Nehemiah 3:3. Eusebius and Jerome mention Magdal Senash, "great Senaah," seven miles N. of Jericho.
Easton's Bible Dictionary [4]
Ezra 2:35 Nehemiah 7:38
Holman Bible Dictionary [5]
Ezra 2:35
Morrish Bible Dictionary [6]
See HASSENAAH.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]
sḗ - nā´a , sen´ā́ - a ( סנאה , ṣenā'āh ; Codex Vaticanus Σαανά , Sananá ; Σανανάτ , Sananát ; Codex Alexandrinus Σανανά , Sananá , Σενναά , Sennaá , Ἁσάν , Hasán ): The children of Senaah are mentioned as having formed part of the company returning from the captivity with Zerubbabel ( Ezra 2:35; Nehemiah 7:38 ). The numbers vary as given by Ezr (3, 630) and Neh (3, 930), while 1 Esdras 5:23 puts them at 3, 330. In the last place the name is Sanaas, the King James Version "Annaas" (Codex Vaticanus Σαμά , Samá ; Codex Alexandrinus Σανάας , Sanáas ). In Nehemiah 3:3 the name occurs with the definite article, ha - senaah . The people may be identical with the Benjamite clan Hassenuah ( 1 Chronicles 9:7 ). Eusebius, in Onomasticon , speaks of Magdalsenna a village about 7 miles North of Jericho, which may be the place intended; but the site is not known.

Ἀσαναά; A.V. "Hassenaah").
