Manaen was a prophet and teacher in the early Christian church at Antioch. He is mentioned alongside other prominent figures such as Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, and Saul (later known as Paul). Manaen is described as having been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, indicating that he may have had a connection to the Herodian royal family. As a prophet and teacher, Manaen played a role in the worship, instruction, and leadership of the church at Antioch (Act 13:1).
