Kenites
According to the Hebrew Bible, the Kenites ( or ; Hebrew: קֵּינִי Qēnī) were a nomadic tribe in the ancient Levant. The Kenites were coppersmiths and metalworkers. They are descendants of Cain. They played an important role in the history of ancient Israel, although the Kenites descended from Rechab maintained a distinct, nomadic lifestyle for some time. Kenite is a rendition of Hebrew קֵינִי Qeni. According to Gesenius, the name is kabbalistically derived from the name Cain (קַיִן Qayin). According to A. H. Sayce, the name Kenite or Qéní, is identical to an Aramaic word meaning a smith, which in its turn is a cognate of Hebrew Qayin, with the meaning ‘a lance’.According to the Kenite hypothesis, Yahweh was historically a Midian deity, and the association of Moses' father-in-law with Midian reflects the historical adoption of the Midianite cult by the Hebrews. Moses apparently identified Jethro's concept of God, Yahweh, with the Israelites' God El Shaddai.
