or rather MAINAN (Μαϊναν [with much variety of readings], of uncertain signification), a person named as the son of Mattatha and father of Melea, among the private descendants of David and ancestors of Christ (Luke 3:31); but of doubtful authenticity (Meth. Quart. Revelation 1852, p. 597). (See GENEALOGY OF JESUS CHRIST).
