  Kenaz
     hunter. (1.) One of the sons of Eliphaz, the son of Esau. He
     became the chief of an Edomitish tribe (Gen. 36:11, 15, 42).
     
       (2.) Caleb's younger brother, and father of Othniel (Josh.
     15:17), whose family was of importance in Israel down to the


     time of David (1 Chr. 27:15). Some think that Othniel (Judg.
     1:13), and not Kenaz, was Caleb's brother.
     
       (3.) Caleb's grandson (1 Chr. 4:15).
