MADMANNAH

(Heb. mamannâ)

A city in the Negeb, in southern Judah, close to Beer-sheba. It may be identified with modern Khirbet Umm ed-Deimneh or Khirbet Tatrît (143084). Madmannah is one of 29 cities belonging to the tribe of Judah that are enumerated in Josh. 15:21-32 according to some geographical principle. A parallel Simeonite list in Josh. 19:1-6 mentions 13 cities, but Madmannah is replaced by Beth-marcaboth, suggesting that Madmannah was an earlier name, later changed to Beth-marcaboth. Shaaph, the son of Caleb’s concubine Maacah, is called the founder (lit., “father”) of Madmannah (1 Chr. 2:49).

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.
