1. 1Ch_25:4; 1Ch_25:25.
2. The seer who rebuked Asa king of Judah, 941 B.C., for buying the alliance of Benhadad I. of Syria, to help him against Baasha of Israel, instead of "relying on the Lord his God," "whose eyes run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward Him" (Jer_17:5). (See ASA.) So Asa lost the victory over Syria itself which faith would have secured to him. Hanani was imprisoned for his faithfulness (2Ch_16:1-4; 2Ch_16:7-10; compare Jer_20:2; Mat_14:3). But Asa only thereby sealed his own punishment; by compromising principle to escape war he brought on himself perpetual wars (1Ki_15:32). Jehu his son was equally faithful in reproving Baasha and Asa's son Jehoshaphat (1Ki_16:1; 1Ki_16:7; 2Ch_19:2; 2Ch_20:34).
3. Ezr_10:19-20.
4. Nehemiah's brother, who returned from Jerusalem to Susa and informed him as to Jerusalem, 446 B.C.; afterward made governor of Jerusalem under Nehemiah (Neh_1:2; Neh_7:2).
5. Neh_12:31; Neh_12:36.

Hanani, 1
Han?ani (gracious), a prophet under the reign of Asa, king of Judah, by whom he was seized and imprisoned for announcing that he had lost, from want of due trust in God, an advantage which he might have gained over the king of Syria (2Ch_16:7).
Hanani, 2
Hana?ni, a brother of Nehemiah, who went from Jerusalem to Shushan, being sent most probably by Ezra, and brought that information respecting the miserable condition of the returned Jews which led to the mission of Nehemiah. Hanani came back to Judea, probably along with his brother, and, together with one Hananiah, was appointed to take charge of the gates of Jerusalem, and see that they were opened in the morning and closed in the evening at the appointed time. The circumstances of the time and place rendered this an important and responsible duty, not unattended with some danger (Neh_7:2-3). B.C. 455.

Hanani
(Heb Chanani', חֲנָנַי, God has gratified me, or an abbreviation of the name Hananiah; Sept. Α᾿νανί, but Α᾿νανία in Ezr_10:10, and Α᾿νανίας in Neh_7:2; Vulg. Hanani), the name of at least three men.
1. One of the sons of Heman, who (with his eleven kinsmen) had charge of the eighteenth division of Levitical musicians in the appointments of David (1Ch_25:4; 1Ch_25:25). B.C. 1014.
2. A prophet who was sent to rebuke king Asa for his want of faith in subsidizing the king of Syria against the rival king Baasha, whereas he should rather have seized the occasion to triumph over both (2 Chronicles 16:1-10). In punishment for this defection from the true God, he was threatened with a troublous residue to his reign. SEE ASA. Enraged at the prophet's boldness, the king seized and thrust him into prison, from which, however, he appears to have been soon released. B.C. 928. This Hanani is probably the same with the father of the prophet Jehu, who denounced king Baasha (1Ki_16:7), also king Jehoshaphat (2Ch_19:2; comp. 20:34).
3. Apparently a brother of Nehemiah, who went from Jerusalem to Shushan, being sent most probably by Ezra, and brought that information respecting the miserable condition of the returned Jews which led to the mission of Nehemiah (Neh_1:2). Hanani came back to Judaea probably along with his brother, and, together with one Hananiah, was appointed to take charge of the gates of Jerusalem, and see that they were opened in the morning and closed in the evening at the appointed time (Neh_7:2). The circumstances of the time and place rendered this an important and responsible duty, not unattended with danger. B.C. 446.
