Manes (ISBE)
DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD
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 Ezra 10:21 . The real equivalent is probably Maaseiah, Elijah being dropped. the Revised Version margin and the King James Version margin give Harim of Ezra 10:21 as identical - apparently incorrectly, for the words "and of the sons of Harim" ( Ezra 10:21 ) 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.
