Kenaz is mentioned 5 times in scripture, across 3 books of the Old Testament. First named in scripture around 1721 BC.
Caleb’s younger brother, and father of Othniel (Josh. 15:17), whose family was of importance in Israel down to the time of David (1 Chr. 27:15). Some think that Othniel (Judg. 1:13), and not Kenaz, was Caleb’s brother.
