However, the concept of grace and favor is captured in Greek by words like χάρις (charis), meaning "grace" or "favor."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The name "Hanun" means "gracious" or "favored." In the Bible, it is used as a proper name for several individuals, most notably a king of the Ammonites.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, names often reflected the character or hoped-for destiny of a person. The name "Hanun" suggests a person who is gracious or favored, which would have been a desirable trait for leaders and individuals alike. The Ammonites, descendants of Lot, were often in conflict with Israel, and their interactions are recorded in various biblical narratives.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
