Manahath

VIEW:28 DATA:01-04-2020
MANAHATH.—1. Mentioned only in 1Ch_8:5 as the place to which certain Benjamite clans were carried captive. The town is probably identical with that implied in Manahathites (wh. see), with the Manochô of the Gr. text of Jos_15:59, and if the text in Jg. is correct, with the Menuhah of Jdg_20:43 RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] . 2. Gen_36:23 (P [Note: Priestly Narrative.] ), 1Ch_1:40 ‘son of Shobal, son of Seir, the Horite,’ i.e. eponymous ancestor of a clan of Edom, or of the earlier population conquered and absorbed by Edom.

1. Gen_36:23. Ptolemy (v. 17, sec. 3) mentions Manychiates W. of Petra:
2. 1Ch_8:6-8; "the heads of the fathers of Geba, they removed them (led them captive, Qeri) to Manahath," "they," namely, Naaman, Ahiah, and Gera, and of these three Gera in particular, "he removed them" (led them captive). Manahath is connected possibly with the Manahethites (1Ch_2:52; 1Ch_2:54) in Judah.

Man'ahath. (rest).
1. A place named in 1Ch_8:6 only in connection with the genealogies of the tribe of Benjamin.
2. One of the sons of Shobal, and descendant of Seir, the Horite. Gen_36:23; 1Ch_1:40

man?a-hath (מנחת, mānaḥath; Μαχαναθί, Machanathı́):
(1) A place to which certain Benjamites, victims, apparently, of intra-tribal jealousy, were carried captive (1Ch_8:6). Of this town the Manahathites were probably natives. It is possibly denoted by Manocho which Septuagint adds to the list of towns in Judah (Jos_15:59). This place is named along with Bether (Bittir). The name seems to be preserved in that of Māliḥa, a large village not far from Bittir, Southwest of Jerusalem. The change of l to n, and vice versa, is not uncommon. The same place may be intended by Menuhah (Jdg_20:43 the Revised Version margin), where the King James Version reads ?with ease,? and the Revised Version (British and American) ?at their resting-place.?
(2) One of the sons of Shobal, the son of Seir the Horite (Gen_36:23; 1Ch_1:40), the ?name-father? of one of the ancient tribes in Mt. Seir, afterward subdued and incorporated in Edom.

Manahath
(Heb. Mana'chath, מָנִחִת, rest), the name of a man and of a place.
1. (Sept. Μαναχάθ.) The second named of the five sons of Shobal, the son of Seir the Horite (Gen_36:23; 1Ch_1:40). B.C. cir. 1927.
2. (Sept. Μαναχαθί v. r. Μαχαναθί.) A town or region to which certain descendants of Ehud, of the tribe of Benjamin, appear to have been exiled from Geba by an act of his father Bela (1Ch_8:6). The context would seem to indicate some locality in the land of Moab. SEE SHAHARAIM. Some refer it to the MENUCHAH of Judah (Jdg_9:43, A. Vers. “with ease;” comp. 1Ch_2:52; 1Ch_2:54), but with little probability. SEE MENUCHITE.
