Enaim
ENAIM.A Judan town in the Shephlah (Jos 15:34. Enam; Gen 38:14, AV [Note: Authorized Version.] in an open place, RV [Note: Revised Version.] in the gate of Enaim; Gen 38:21, AV [Note: Authorized Version.] openly, RV [Note: Revised Version.] at Enaim). From the narrative in Gen 38:1-30 we gather that it lay between Adullam and Timnah. The site is not identified. Conder suggests Khirbet Wdy Alin, near Beth-shemesh and En-gannim.

Enaim
e-naim (, enaym, place of a fountain; , Ainan; Gen 38:14 (the King James Version in an open place; Gen 38:21 the King James Version openly)): A place which lay between Adullam and Timnath; probably the same as Enam (Jos 15:34). Also mentioned in close connection with Adullam. It was in the Shephelah of Judah. The Talmud (Pesik Rab. 23) mentions a Kephar Enaim. Conder proposes Khurbet Wady Aln, which is an ancient site, evidently of great strength and importance, lying between Kh Ain Shems and the village of Deir Aban. The ruins crown a lofty and almost isolated hill; the greatest objection to the identification is that there is no fountain at all in the immediate neighborhood. There may have been one in earlier times. See PEF, III, 128.
