the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole
house of the Rechabites;

2:55 And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites, the
Shimeathites, and Suchathites. These are the Kenites
that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab.
Therefor, Rechabites are Kenites,
sons of Cain.
