(ehz' ruh hite) A term used to describe the family relationships of Ethan, a famous wise man (1 Kings 4:31 ). The precise meaning of the Hebrew word is debated. It may mean one born in the land with full citizenship rights and point to a Canaanite origin for Ethan. A related word appears in Exodus 12:19 ,Exodus 12:19,12:49; Leviticus 17:15; Joshua 8:33 , and other places. See Ethan .
