EN-GANNIM

(Heb. ʿên gannîm) (also ANEM)

1. A settlement in the Judean Shephelah. The city was likely to the east of Zanoah and Jarmuth, coming between them in the description of the western Shephelah in Josh. 15:34. The exact location is uncertain, although some have suggested Beit Jemal, 3.2 (2 mi.) S of Beth-shemesh, or Umm Jina, 1.6 km. (1 mi.) SW of Beth-shemesh.

2. A levitical city within the tribal boundaries of Issachar (Josh. 19:21; 21:29), likely identified with Khirbet Beit Jann (196235) SW of modern Tiberius. The parallel account in 1 Chr. 6:73 calls the settlement Anem.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
