MIDDIN

(Heb. middîn)

A town in the Judean wilderness (Josh. 15:61) allotted to the tribe of Judah. Although controversy surrounds the exact geography of this district, which includes En-gedi, the recent archaeological discovery of three Iron Age settlements in the Buqeiʿah Valley presents the possibility of a more precise identification for Middin. It is probably to be located at Khirbet Abū Öabaq (188127).

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.
