En-eglaim

[many En-egla’imi] (Hebrews Eyn Egla’yim, fountain of two calves, unless for , fountain of two pools; Sept. v.r. ), a place named only by Ezekiel (Eze 47:10), apparently as on the Dead Sea, but whether near to or far from Engedi, on the west or east side of the sea, it is impossible to ascertain from the text: “The fishers shall stand upon it from En-gedi even to En-eglaim: they shall be a place to spread forth nets.” In his comment on the passage, Jerome places it at the northern end of the Deed Sea, at the influx of the Jordan. M. de Saulcy thinks it identical with AinAjlah, situated towards the northern point of the Dead Sea, between Jericho and the Jordan (Narrative, 1:163). SEE BETH- HOGLAH. En-eglaim is probably another name for the EGLAIM SEE EGLAIM (q.v.) of Isa 15:8.

En-Eglaim

EN-EGLAIM.A locality on the Dead Sea, mentioned along with En-gedi (Eze 47:10). It has not been identified, but is not improbably Ain Feshkah (Robinson, BRP [Note: RP Biblical Researches in Palestine.] ii. 489). Tristram (Bible Places, 93) would make it Ain Hajlah (Beth-hoglah). In any case, it probably lay to the N. towards the mouth of the Jordan.

En-Eglaim

en-egla-im, en-eg-laim ( , en eghlayim, fountain of calves?): In Ezekiel’s vision of the waters it is one of the two points between which fishers shall stand (Eze 47:10). The situation must be near the entrance of the Jordan into the Dead Sea (see EN-GEDI). Tristram (Bible Places, 93) identifies it with Ain Hajlah (compare BETH-HOGLAH); Robinson (BRP, II, 489), with Ain Feshkah.
