It is used to identify a descendant of Seir the Horite, who was a chief in the land of Edom. The name itself may imply a characteristic of being twisted or tortuous, possibly reflecting a trait or reputation of the individual or his descendants.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of personal characteristics, family traits, or divine attributes. The Horites, to whom Aqan belonged, were a group of people who lived in the region of Seir before the Edomites. They were known for their integration into the Edomite culture and their eventual absorption by the Edomites. The genealogies in which Aqan appears serve to establish the historical and familial connections of the peoples surrounding Israel.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6127.htm">aqal</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a desc. of Esau<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Akan (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עֲקָן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>in Edom</b></font>; — <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">וַע</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-27.htm">Genesis 36:27</a>, (<font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ι</font>)<font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">ουκαμ</font> = <font class="hebrew2">יַעֲקָן</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/1-42.htm">1 Chronicles 1:42</a>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ωναν</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ιαακαν</font> etc. (see Lag<sup>BN 84.Anm</sup>.**; also <font class="hebrew2">בְּנֵייַֿעֲקָ֑ן</font> and <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">יע</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">בְּאֵרֹת ב</font> ). <p><font class="hebrew2">עקר</font> (√ of following; meaning dubious; compare Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">עִקָּרָא</font> <img src="/bdbgif/bdb078508.gif"> <em>root</em>; Ethiopic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb078509.gif"> <em>medicine</em>; Arabic verb apparently denominative <img src="/bdbgif/bdb078510.gif"> <em>extirpate</em>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <font class="hebrew2">עֲקַר</font> <em>id.</em>; Late Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">עָקַר</font> = Biblical Hebrew). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Akan <p>From an unused root meaning to twist; tortuous; Akan, an Idummaean -- Akan.
