En-rimmon
En-rimmon
(Hebrews Eyn Rimmon’, , fountain of Rimmon; Sept. v. r. , Vat. MS. omits, Vulg. et in Remmon), a place occupied by the descendants of Judah after the exile (Neh 11:29). It appears from the associated places to be the same with the “Ain and Rimmon” of Jos 15:32 (comp. Jos 19:7; 1Ch 4:32), where perhaps, in like manner, but one place is referred to, a spring adjoining the town of Rimmon. SEE AIN. Yet the enumeration (“five cities”) of 1Ch 4:32 (“Ain, Rimmon”) requires them to be taken as distinct. In fact, there appears to have been a Levitical city en-Rimmon near to, but originally distinct from the nonLevitical Rimmon, and indicated by a remarkable reservoir still extant in the vicinity. SEE RIMMON.

En-Rimmon
EN-RIMMON (spring of [the] pomegranate).One of the settlements of the Judahites after the return from the Exile (Neh 11:29). In Jos 15:32 amongst the towns assigned to Judah we find Ain and Rimmon, and in Jos 19:7 (cf. 1Ch 4:32) amongst those assigned to Simeon are Ain, Rimmon. In all these instances there can be littls doubt that we ought to read En-rimmon. En-rimmon is probably to be identified with the modern Umm er-Rummin, about 9 miles N. of Beersheba.

En-Rimmon
en-rimon (, en-rimmon, the fountain of Rimmon (see RIMMON), or perhaps the spring of the pomegranate; , Eromoth, , Rhemmon): A city of Judah (Jos 15:32), Ain and Rimmon; ascribed to Simeon (Jos 19:7; 1Ch 4:32, Ain, Rimmon). In Neh 11:29 mentioned as reinhabited after the Captivity. Zec 14:10, runs: All the land shall be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem. It must have been a very southerly place. In the Eusebius, Onomasticon, (Erimmon) it is described as a very large village 16 miles South of Eleutheropolis. Kh Umm er Rumamn, 9 miles North of Beersheba is the usually accepted site. See PEF, 398; Sh XXIV.
