HANES

(Heb. ḥānēs)

A city in Egypt, usually associated with Heracleopolis Magna (Egyp. µwt-nn-nsw, “Palace of the Royal Child”), modern Ihnâsiyeh el-Medina, ca. 80 km. (50 mi.) S of Memphis on the west bank of the Nile. Heracleopolis was the capital of the 20th nome and an important city throughout the Late Period of Egypt. Isa. 30:4 chastises the king of Judah for sending envoys to Zoan (Tannis) and Hanes to make an alliance with Pharaoh, who would have been one of the middle kings of the 25th Dynasty, either Shabaka (716-702 b.c.e.) or Shebitku (702-690).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
