Manahen

Manaen praying and fasting with Barnabas, Simeon Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, and Paul. illustrated by Jim Padgett

Manahen /ˈmæniən/ (also Manaen or Menachem) was a teacher in the first century Christian Church at Antioch who had been 'brought up' (Greek: σύντροφος, syntrophos, Vulgate: collactaneus) with Herod Antipas.[1]

According to the Acts of the Apostles, he was among those who sent Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey. He was probably one of the founders of the church at Antioch.
