The meaning of Manahathites in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
man'-a-hath-its (menuchoth (I Chronicles 2:52), manachti (I Chronicles 2:54); Septuagint: Codex Vaticanus Monaio; Codex Alexandrinus Ammanith (I Chronicles 2:52); Codex Vaticanus Malathei; Codex Alexandrinus Manath, (I Chronicles 2:54); the King James Version, Manahethites): These men were the inhabitants of Manahath. They were descendants of Caleb, one-half being the progeny of Shobal, and the other of Salma. In I Chronicles 2:52 the Revised Version (British and American) transliterates "Menuhoth," but Manahathites is preferable.
