Kinah
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
kı̄´na ( קידה , ḳı̄nāh ): An unidentified town on the southern boundary of Judah, toward Edom ( Joshua 15:22 ). The word ḳı̄nāh means "elegy," "dirge," "lament for the dead." The name, however, may have been derived from the Kenites, קידי , who had settlements in the South (1 Samuel 27:10 , etc.).
