1. sense 1 — Numbers 26:5 uses this term to identify the Hanochite clan within the tribe of Reuben. The multilingual glosses (English 'the-Hanochite,' Spanish 'los-hanoquitas,' French 'le-Hanochite') reflect both singular and plural nuances, as gentilic adjectives can denote either an individual or the clan collectively.
