The meaning of Meonothai in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
me-on'-o-thi, me-o'-no-thi, me-o-no'-thi (me'onothai, "my dwellings"): A son of Othniel, nephew of Caleb (I Chronicles 4:14). Possibly, as the King James Version margin suggests, and the Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 AD) and Complutensian Septuagint say, I Chronicles 4:13-14 should read "the sons of Othniel, Hathath and Meonothai; and Meonothai begat Ophrah," etc. The latter may be founder of the town of that name.
