Hitchcock's Bible Names
Hen

grace; quiet; rest

Smith's Bible Dictionary
Hen

(rest), probably a son of Zephaniah, and apparently the same who is called JOSIAH in (Zechariah 6:10)

ATS Bible Dictionary
Hen

The care of a hen to protect her brood from hawks, etc., illustrates the Savior's tender care of his people when exposed to the swoop of the Roman eagle, as in all similar perils, Matthew 23:37; 24:22. The common barn-door fowl is not often mentioned in Scripture, Mark 13:35; 14:30; Luke 22:34; but at the present day they and their eggs are more used in Syria than any other food not vegetable.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
HEN (1)

hen (chen, "favor"). In Zechariah 6:14, English Versions of the Bible reads, "And the crowns shall be to Helem. and to Hen the son of Zephaniah." But as this person is called Josiah in Zechariah 6:10, the Revised Version, margin "and for the kindness of the son of Zephaniah" is probably right, but the text is uncertain.

See JOSIAH.

HEN (2)

(ornis): Mentioned in the accounts of the different disciples in describing the work of Jesus (Matthew 23:37 Luke 13:34).

Easton's Bible Dictionary
Common in later times among the Jews in Palestine (Matthew 23:37; Luke 13:34). It is noticeable that this familiar bird is only mentioned in these passages in connection with our Lord's lamentation over the impenitence of Jerusalem.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
