[genitive] Iannou: a Jewish name.
Mentioned in Paul's Second Epistle to Timothy (3.8): Iambres (
iota 28) and Iannes opposed
Moses (
mu 1348). Jannes and Jambres are "names of two legendary wizards of Pharaoh 'who withstood
Moses' (II Tim. iii. 8) by imitating "with their enchantments" the works of
Moses and Aaron, though they were defeated (Ex. vii. 11, viii. 7)": Jewish Encyclopedia s.v., see web address 1 for further details.
