BANIAS (1)

ba-ni'-as (B, Banias; A, Bani; the King James Version Banid (1 Esdras 8:36)): An ancestor of Salimoth. The descendants of Banias returned with Ezra to Jerusalem. The name is omitted (Ezra 8:10), perhaps due to the oversight of a copyist or a mistaken reading of bene, "sons of," for bani.

BANIAS (2)

See CAESAREA, PHILIPPI.
