His name appears in the context of the descendants of Judah, highlighting the intricate family lines that are often detailed in the Scriptures to trace the lineage of significant tribes and individuals within the history of Israel.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>Tehinnah is mentioned in <a href="/1_chronicles/4-12.htm">1 Chronicles 4:12</a>: "Eshton was the father of Beth-Rapha, Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of Ir-Nahash. These were the men of Recah." <br><br><b>Genealogical Context:</b><br><br>Tehinnah is identified as the father of Ir-Nahash. The passage in <a href="/1_chronicles/4-12.htm">1 Chronicles 4:12</a> is part of a larger genealogical listing that traces the descendants of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who became the patriarch of the tribe of Judah. This tribe holds significant importance in biblical history, as it is the tribe from which King David and, ultimately, Jesus Christ descended.<br><br><b>Tribal Significance:</b><br><br>The tribe of Judah is one of the most prominent tribes in Israel's history. It was known for its leadership and military prowess, and it played a central role in the establishment of the Kingdom of Israel. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the historical and familial connections within the tribe, underscoring the fulfillment of God's promises to His people through specific lineages.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Insights:</b><br><br>The mention of Tehinnah and his descendants provides insight into the social and familial structures of ancient Israel. Genealogies were crucial for maintaining tribal identity and inheritance rights. They also served to affirm the fulfillment of God's covenantal promises to the patriarchs, as the lineage of Judah was prophesied to produce leaders and, ultimately, the Messiah.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br><br>From a theological perspective, the genealogies in the Bible, including the mention of figures like Tehinnah, emphasize God's sovereignty and faithfulness in guiding the history of His people. Each name and lineage contributes to the unfolding narrative of redemption that culminates in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus Christ, the Lion of the tribe of Judah.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>While Tehinnah may not be a prominent figure in biblical narratives, his inclusion in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles highlights the importance of every individual in the tapestry of God's redemptive history. Through these records, believers are reminded of the meticulous care with which God orchestrates His divine plan across generations.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Tehinnah</span><p>entreaty; a favor<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Tehinnah</span><p>(<i>supplication</i>), the father or founder of Ir-nahash, the city of Nahash, and son of Eshton.
