HASSENUAH

has-e-nu'-a (haccenu'ah): A family name in the two lists of Benjamite inhabitants of Jerusalem (1 Chronicles 9:7, the King James Version "Hasenuah"; Nehemiah 11:9, "Senuah"). The name is possibly the same as HASSENAAH (which see), yet the occurrence of the singular ("son of Hassenuah") does not so well accord with the idea of a place-name.
