SENAAH . The children of Senaah, or more correctly Hassenaah , were a clan or family who, according to Ezra 2:35 , Nehemiah 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 ( Nehemiah 3:3 ). They are elsewhere unknown, unless they should be identified with Hassenuah of Benjamin ( 1 Chronicles 9:7 , Nehemiah 11:9 ). The latter would then be the correct reading. Other conjectures are less probable.

J. F. McCurdy.
