Hassenuah
A personal name, Senuah or Hasenuah, appearing in genealogies and returnee lists within biblical texts. The name derives from the root meaning 'to hate' or 'to be hated,' but as a proper noun there is no evidence that it carries the same connotation. Instead, it functions solely as a distinctive family or clan name.

the Senuah
| Morphological Notes | Definite article + Qal passive participle, feminine singular absolute, functioning as a proper noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | Though morphologically a Qal passive participle feminine singular ('hated one'), SILEX identifies it as a proper name functioning solely as a clan designation. The prefixed article is preserved in English as 'the' to reflect הַ. |
