Berean Strong's Lexicon Qenan: Kenan Original Word: קֵינָן Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Qenan Pronunciation: kay-nawn' Phonetic Spelling: (kay-nawn') Definition: Kenan Meaning: Kenan Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2536 (Καϊνάμ, Kainam): This Greek entry corresponds to Kenan in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, and in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke. Usage: The name "Kenan" is often understood to mean "possession" or "fixed." In the genealogies of Genesis, Kenan is listed as a descendant of Adam, specifically the great-grandson of Adam through Seth. His name signifies a sense of establishment or possession, reflecting the continuity and stability of the human lineage from Adam. Cultural and Historical Background: Kenan is a figure in the genealogical records of the Bible, appearing in the line of Seth, which is considered the godly line leading to Noah and eventually to Abraham. The genealogies in Genesis serve to trace the lineage of the faithful and to establish the historical and theological continuity from creation through the patriarchs. Kenan's inclusion in these genealogies underscores the importance of family lineage and heritage in ancient Hebrew culture, where ancestry was closely tied to identity and covenantal promises.
