MENUHOTH mə nōō’ hŏth (מְּנֻחֹֽות, resting-places). A name appearing only once, in the RSV (1 Chron 2:52): “Shobal the father of Kiriath-jearim had other sons: Haroeh, half of the Menuhoth.” The reference seems to be to half of the population of a town which is now unknown. In this passage the KJV reads Manahethites, a name which also occurs in 1 Chronicles 2:54 (KJV and RSV). If the reading of the KJV is adopted in 1 Chronicles 2:52, the Manahethites of 1 Chronicles 2:54 would be the other half of the Menuhoth referred to in the earlier passage. The Heb. however, does not seem to allow for that reading in v. 52.
