Rimon 2
Priskribo
Urbo en la suda parto de la teritorio de la tribo de Jehuda [Jos 15:32 ]; ĝi estis asignita al la tribo de Simeon [Jos 19:7 ]. En la Malnova Testamento, ĉi tiu urbo ĉiam estas asociita kun la urbo *Ain [1Kron 4:32 ]. Post la reveno el kaptiteco, ĝi aperas nur en la kunmetita nomo En-remmon, t.e., Ain-Remmon, kio indikas, ke ambaŭ lokoj estis kunfanditaj en unu [Neh 11:29 ]. Ĝi ofte estas identigita kun la ruinoj de Ummer-Rumamim, ĉirkaŭ 14 km norde de Beerŝeba.

Rimmon
pomegranate.
(1.) A man of Beeroth (2Sam 4:2 ), one of the four Gibeonite cities. [See (Josh 9:17)].
(2.) A Syrian idol, mentioned only in (2Kings 5:18).
(3.) One of the "uttermost cities" of Judah, afterwards given to Simeon (Josh 15:21; 15:32; 19:7; 1Chr 4:32). In (Josh 15:32) Ain and Rimmon are mentioned separately, but in (Josh 19:7) and (1Chr 4:32) [comp. (Neh 11:29 )] the two words are probably to be combined, as forming together the name of one place, Ain-Rimmon = the spring of the pomegranate. It has been identified with Um er-Rumamin, about 13 miles south-west of Hebron.
(4.) "Rock of," to which the Benjamites fled (Judg 20:45; 20:47; 21:13), and where they maintained themselves for four months after the fearful battle at Gibeah, in which they were almost exterminated, 600 only surviving out of about 27,000. It is the present village of Rummon, "on the very edge of the hill country, with a precipitous descent toward the Jordan valley," supposed to be the site of Ai.
