Bosworth & Toller Anglo-Saxon Old English Dictionary - efen-éhþ, -néhþ

According to the Old English Dictionary:

efen-éhþ, -néhþ
Add: Three of the four MSS. have efennehþe, and this form points to connexion with efen-neáh, and to the idea of neighbourhood. For this sense cf. the later efen-nexta neighbour:--Gif þú agultest wið þine efennexta, O. E. Hml. i. 17, 32. efen-ehþ
