HANANI

1. Seer who rebuked King Asa for giving treasure to Ben-hadad of Syria to persuade him to attack Israel. Hanani was imprisoned for his preaching (2 Chr 16:1-10). Hanani was the father of the prophet Jehu, who made protests against Baasha, king of Israel (1 Kgs 16:1-7), and Jehoshaphat, king of Judah (2 Chr 19:2).

2. Heman’s son, David’s seer, and a musician in the temple (1 Chr 25:4, 25).

3. Priest who obeyed Ezra’s exhortation to divorce his pagan wife after returning from exile (Ezr 10:20).

4. Brother of Nehemiah who induced him to act on behalf of the Jews when he reported the state of Jerusalem and Judah (Neh 1:2). Hanani was later given responsibility for the city of Jerusalem (7:2).

5. Priest and musician who participated in the dedication of the rebuilt walls of Jerusalem (Neh 12:36).
