<p> (See JEPHUNNEH.) </p> <p> 1. [[Son]] of Eliphaz, Esau's son. A duke of [[Edom]] (Genesis 36:15; [[Genesis]] 36:42). [[Founder]] of the family of Kenezites (adopted into Israel), of whom were [[Caleb]] and [[Othniel]] (Joshua 14:14). </p> <p> 2. Caleb's grandson, but the "and" (even) before "Kenaz" in 1 Chronicles 4:15 shows a name has fallen out. </p> <p> 3. [[Younger]] brother of Caleb and father of Othniel (Joshua 15:17). But Keil with the Masorites translated "Othniel the son of [[Kenaz]] (i.e. the Kenezites) and (younger) brother of Caleb." Caleb gave him his daughter to wife, a marriage in Keil's view not forbidden in the law. "The Kenizzites" of Genesis 15:19 either had ceased to exist before Joshua, or probably [[Moses]] added their name subsequently, as those descendants of Kenaz were adopted into [[Israel]] subsequently, to whom Caleb belonged. </p> | |||

<p> (Heb. Kenaz', קְנִז, hunter; Sept. Κενέζ, but in 1 Chronicles i, 36 v. r. Κεζεζ ), the name of three or four men. </p> <p> 1. The last named of the sons of Eliphaz, Esau's firstborn; he became the chieftain of one of the petty Edomitish tribes of [[Arabia]] Petrsea (Genesis 36:11; [[Genesis]] 36:15; 1 Chronicles 1:36). B.C. post 1905. "The descendants of [[Esau]] did not settle within the limits of Edom. The Ituraeans migrated northward to the borders of Damascus; [[Amalek]] settled in the desert between [[Egypt]] and Palestine; [[Teman]] went westward into Arabia. We are justified, therefore, in inferring that [[Kenaz]] also may have led his family and followers to a distance from Mount Seir. Forster maintains (Geography of Arabia, ii, 43) that the tribe of Kenaz, or Al-Kenaz with the Arabic article prefixed, are identical with the Lcekeni or Lceeni of Ptolemy, a tribe dwelling near the shores of the [[Persian]] [[Gulf]] (Geog. 6:7), and these he would further identify with the AEnezes (properly Anezeh), the largest, and most powerful tribe of Bedawin in Arabia. It is possible that the [[Hebrew]] [[Koph]] may have been changed into the Arabic Ain; in other respects the names are identical. The Inezes cover the desert from the [[Euphrates]] to Syria, and from [[Aleppo]] on the north to the mountains of Nejd on the south.. It is said that they can bring into the field 10,000 horsemen and 90,000 camel-riders, and they are lords of a district some 40,000 square miles in area (Burckhardt, [[Notes]] on the [[Bedouins]] and Wahabys, 1 sq.; Porter, Handbook for [[Syria]] and Palest. p. 536 sq.)" (Kitto). (See [[Kenizzite]]). </p> <p> 2. Successor of Pinon, and predecessor of Teman among the later Edomitish emirs (" dukes"), who appear to have been contemporary with the [[Horite]] kings (Genesis 36:42; 1 Chronicles 1:53). B.C. considerably ante 1658. (See [[Esau]]). </p> <p> 3. The younger brother of [[Caleb]] and father of [[Othniel]] (afterwards judge), who married Caleb's daughter (Joshua 15:17; Judges 1:13); he had also another son, [[Seraiah]] (1 Chronicles 4:13). B.C. post 1698. On account of this double relationship Caleb is sometimes called a KENEZITE (Numbers 33:12; Joshua 14:6; Joshua 14:14), whence some have maintained that he was the son rather than brother of Kenaz. </p> <p> 4. [[Son]] of Elah, and grandson of Caleb, the son of [[Jephunneh]] (1 Chronicles 4:15, where the margin understands "even Kenaz," וּקְנִז, as a proper name Uknaz), B.C. post 1618. </p> | |||
