Beloved, the Kenite, has been usually identified with Jethro (q.v.), [Ex. 18:5](/exod#Exod.18.5), [27](/exod#Exod.18.27); comp. [Num. 10:29](/num#Num.10.29), [30](/num#Num.10.30). In [Judg. 4:11](/judg#Judg.4.11), the word rendered “father-in-law” means properly any male relative by marriage (comp. [Gen. 19:14](/gen#Gen.19.14), “son-in-law,” A.V.), and should be rendered “brother-in-law,” as in the R.V. His descendants followed Israel to Canaan ([Num. 10:29](/num#Num.10.29)), and at first pitched their tents near Jericho, but afterwards settled in the south in the borders of Arad ([Judg. 1:8-11](/judg#Judg.1.8), [16](/judg#Judg.1.16)).
