Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Beninu, as it is a specific proper noun found in the Old Testament and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament.

Usage: The name Beninu appears in the genealogical records of the post-exilic community in the Book of Nehemiah.

Context: Beninu is mentioned in the context of the return from the Babylonian exile, specifically in the Book of Nehemiah. In Nehemiah 10:13, Beninu is listed among the leaders of the people who sealed the covenant with Nehemiah. This covenant was a significant moment for the Jewish community, as it represented a renewed commitment to follow the Law of Moses and to separate themselves from the surrounding peoples. The inclusion of Beninu in this list indicates his role as a leader or representative of his family or clan during this pivotal time in Israel's history. The name itself, meaning "our son," may reflect a sense of communal identity and continuity within the post-exilic community.
