Kenan
Kenan or Qenan (
Cainan seems to be an improper rendering of this word; it is separate from the word transliterated Cainan later in the
Torah; the rendering Cainan is based off the Greek renderings, Kaïvav as found in Luke 3:36, 37) was a
Biblical patriarch first mentioned in the
Hebrew Bible book of
Genesis.
