- Bethnimrah:
- Probably the same as Nimrim in "From the cryª¹ of Heshbonª [even] unto¹ Elealeh,ª [and even] unto¹ Jahaz,ª have they utteredª° their voice,ª from Zoarª¹ [even] unto¹ Horonaim,ª [as] an heiferª of three years old:ª for¹ the watersª also¹ of Nimrimª shall be¹ desolate.ª" {Jer 48:34}, and the Bethnabris mentioned by Eusebius, five miles north from Livias. Burckhardt says, that "in the valley of the Jordan, south of Abou Obeida, are the ruins of Nemrim, probably the Beth-nimrah of the Scriptures." "Ataroth,ª and Dibon,ª and Jazer,ª and Nimrah,ª and Heshbon,ª and Elealeh,ª and Shebam,ª and Nebo,ª and Beon,ª" {Num 32:3}, Nimrah
