However, the concept of "grace" or "favor," related to the root חָנַן (chanan), can be linked to Greek words such as χάρις (charis), meaning "grace" or "favor."

Usage: Techinnah is used as a personal name in the Old Testament. It appears in genealogical records and is associated with individuals in the post-exilic community.

Context: • Techinnah is mentioned in the context of the genealogies of the post-exilic community. Specifically, Techinnah is noted as the father of a family of temple servants, known as the Nethinim, who returned from Babylonian exile with Zerubbabel. The Nethinim were a group assigned to assist the Levites in the service of the temple. The mention of Techinnah is found in the book of Nehemiah, which details the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the reestablishment of the Jewish community after the Babylonian captivity.
• Biblical Reference: Nehemiah 7:46 • "The temple servants: the descendants of Ziha, the descendants of Hasupha, the descendants of Techinnah."
