Hazazon-Tamar
HAZAZON-TAMAR (? pruning of the palm, Gen 14:7).It is identified with En-gedi (2Ch 20:2). The name is preserved in Wdy Hasaseh, N. of Ain Jidy. Gen 14:7, however, seems to place it to the S. W. of the Dead Sea.

Hazazon-Tamar
haza-zan-tamar ( , hacacon tamar; the King James Version Hazezon Tamar): Hazazon of the palm trees, mentioned (Gen 14:7) as a place of the Amorites, conquered, together with En-mishpat and the country of the Amalekites, by Chedorlaomer; in 2Ch 20:2 it is identified with EN-GEDI (which see); and if so, it must have been its older name. If this identification be accepted, then Hazazon may survive in the name Wady Husasah, Northwest of Ain Jidy. Another suggestion, which certainly meets the needs of the narrative better, is that Hazazon-tamar is the Thamara of Eusebius, Onomasticon (85 3; 210 86), the , Thamaro, of Ptol. xvi.3. The ruin Kurnub, 20 miles West-Southwest of the South end of the Dead Sea – on the road from Hebron to Elath – is supposed to mark this site.
