IR-NAHASH

(Heb. ʿîr nāḥāš)

The son of Tehinnah, listed among the descendants of Judah (1 Chr. 4:12). However, Heb. ʿîr means “city” and a cognate of nāḥāš is the word for copper, thus possibly “Copper City.” 1 Chr. 4:12 may then indicate that Tehinnah founded Ir-nahash, just as v. 4 mentions Ephrathah as the father of Bethlehem. If Ir-nahash was a city, its location is unknown.

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.
