(Heb. Bani’, , built; Sept. usually , sometimes or v, etc.), the name of at least five men.
1. A Levite, son of Shamer, and father of Amzi, of the family of Merari
(1Ch 6:46). B.C. long ante 1043.

He is elsewhere (Neh 7:15) called BINNUI SEE BINNUI (q.v). SEE BANID. He was himself one of those who divorced their heathen wives (Ezr 10:38). Others consider this last a different person, and identify him with some of those referred to below. B.C. 536-410.
5. A Levite, whose son Rehum repaired a portion of the (branch) wall of Jerusalem skirting the brow of Mount Zion on the east (Neh 3:17).

He had another son named Uzzi, who was appointed overseer of the Levites at Jerusalem; his own father’s name was Hashabiah (Neh 11:22). B.C. 446-410. SEE CHENANI.

Bani
There are several of this name in Scripture, (See 2Sa 23:36; 1Ch 6:46; Ezr 2:10) Some render the word, from Ban, son. Hence, Rachel named her son, Benoni, in her dying moments, while Jacob called him Benjamin. The mother’s name made him Ben, the son, oni, of my sorrow. The father’s Ben, the son, jamin, the right hand, or the hand of strength.
