Subjects in this Topic:

mā´nēz (Μάνης, Mánēs): One of those who put away their “strange wives” (1 Esdras 9:21). It represents the two names Maaseiah and Elijah of the parallel . The real equivalent is probably Maaseiah, Elijah being dropped. the Revised Version margin and the King James Version margin give Harim of as identical - apparently incorrectly, for the words “and of the sons of Harim” () are simply omitted. the King James Version blunders strangely here in reading Eanes after a misprint Ηάνης, Eánēs (for Μάνης, Mánēs) in the Aldine edition.
