Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.


Ad'mah. (earthy, fortress). One of the "cities of the plain," always coupled with Zeboim. Gen_10:19; Gen_14:2; Gen_14:8; Gen_29:23; Hos_11:8.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


ad?ma (אדמה, 'adhmāh): From a root signifying red; one of the Cities of the Plain (Ciccar) (Gen_10:19; Gen_14:2, Gen_14:8; Deu_29:23; Hos_11:8) upon which Abraham and Lot looked from the heights of Bethel; destroyed with Sodom and Gomorrah. Conder tentatively identifies it with the City of Adam referred to in Jos_3:16, and thinks that perhaps the name may be preserved in that of Damieh Ford, near the mouth of the river Jabbok; but that point could not have been in view from Bethel. See VALE OF SIDDIM.

Ad?mah, one of the cities in the vale of Siddim (Gen_10:19), which had a king of its own (Gen_14:2). It was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen_19:24; Hos_11:8).

Admah
(Heb. Admah”, אִדְמָה, properly earth; Sept. Α᾿δαμά, but Α᾿δάμα in Hosea), one of the five cities in the vale of Siddim (Gen_10:19), which had a king of its own (Gen_14:2; Gen_14:8). It was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen_19:24; Deu_29:23; Hos_11:8). Near the south-west end of the Dead Sea, M. De Saulcy passed through a place marked with the effects of volcanic agency, called et Thoemah, where his guides assured him were ruins of a city anciently overthrown by the Almighty (Narrative, 1, 420); but its identification with Admah needs corroboration. Reland (Paloest. p. 545) is inclined to infer, from the constant order of the names, that it was situated between Gomorrah and Zeboim; but even these sites are so uncertain that we can only conjecture the locality of Admah somewhere near the middle of the southern end of the Dead Sea. SEE SODOM.
