Brown-Driver-Briggs בֶּןחָֿנָן proper name, masculine one of tribe ofJudah 1 Chronicles 4:20. Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words בֵּן (ben, meaning "son") and חָנָן (chanan, meaning "gracious" or "favored").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name Ben-Chanan in the Strong's Concordance, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of "grace" or "favor" can be related to the Greek word χάρις (charis, Strong's Greek 5485), which means "grace" or "favor." Usage: Ben-Chanan is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: • Ben-Chanan is mentioned in the context of the genealogies and lists of officials in the Old Testament. The name appears in 1 Kings 4:9, where Ben-Chanan is listed as one of the twelve district governors appointed by King Solomon. These governors were responsible for providing provisions for the king and his household, each for one month of the year. The role of Ben-Chanan, along with the other governors, was crucial in maintaining the administrative and economic stability of Solomon's kingdom. The name itself, meaning "son of favor" or "son of grace," reflects a common practice in Hebrew naming conventions, where names often conveyed a sense of divine favor or blessing.
