Hassenaah).

Senaah
SENAAH.The children of Senaah, or more correctly Hassenaah, were a clan or family who, according to Ezr 2:35, Neh 7:38, 1Es 5:23 [Sanaas], were among the exiles of the first Restoration under Zerub., and had a share in re-building the walls (Neh 3:3). They are elsewhere unknown, unless they should be identified with Hassenuah of Benjamin (1Ch 9:7, Neh 11:9). The latter would then be the correct reading. Other conjectures are less probable.

Senaah
se-naa, sena-a (, sena’ah; Codex Vaticanus , Sanana; , Sananat; Codex Alexandrinus , Sanana, , Sennaa, , Hasan): The children of Senaah are mentioned as having formed part of the company returning from the captivity with Zerubbabel (Ezr 2:35; Neh 7:38). The numbers vary as given by Ezr (3, 630) and Neh (3, 930), while 1 Esdras 5:23 puts them at 3, 330. In the last place the name is Sanaas, the King James Version Annaas (Codex Vaticanus , Sama; Codex Alexandrinus , Sanaas). In Neh 3:3 the name occurs with the definite article, ha-senaah. The people may be identical with the Benjamite clan Hassenuah (1Ch 9:7). Eusebius, in Onomasticon, speaks of Magdalsenna a village about 7 miles North of Jericho, which may be the place intended; but the site is not known.
