Menuhah

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]

Menuhah (  Judges 20:43 ). We should perhaps read Manahath (wh. see), or, better, ‘from Nohah .’ In   1 Chronicles 8:2 Nohah is a clan of Benjamin.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [2]

men - ū´ha , men - ū´ka ( מנוּחה , menūḥāh , "place of rest"; the King James Version Menuchah ): Rendered in   Judges 20:43 the King James Version "with ease," the Revised Version (British and American) "at their resting-place." Both, however, have a marginal suggestion which would make the word a place-name, which would then more naturally read "from Nuhah over against Gibeah," thus describing the ground over which the slaughter of the Benjamites occurred. In   1 Chronicles 8:2 the word "Nohah" occurs as that of a Benjamite elan. The place intended is perhaps Manahath (which see).
