International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

ē̇ -nē´nē̇ -us , en -e -nē´us ( Ἐνήνιος , Enḗnios ; the King James Version Enenius , the Revised Version, margin "Enenis"): Occurring only in Apocrypha. According to 1 Esdras 5:8, Eneneus was one of the 12 leaders over the returning exiles from Babylon under Zerubbabel. Ezr 2 contains the parallel list of the returning leaders but omits Eneneus, giving only 11; but Eneneus corresponds to Nahamani (Nehemiah 7:7 ).
