Bible Figure
Enan
father of Ahira in the book of Numbers
Enan was the father of Ahira, the tribal leader of Naphtali during Israel's wilderness period.
Biography
Numbers repeatedly identifies Ahira son of Enan as Naphtali's representative at the census, dedication of the altar, and tribal marching order. Enan himself does not act or speak in the biblical narrative.
Biblical Significance
Enan's significance is genealogical as the father identifying Naphtali's wilderness leader. Scripture does not support a fuller biography.
