ANIM (Jos_15:60 only).—A town of Judah, in the mountains near Eshtemoh. It seems probable that it is the present double ruin of Ghuwein, west of Eshtemoh.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


A city in the mountains of Judah (Jos_15:50). Derived from Ainain, "the two springs," perhaps at Khirbet el Jif, near Khirbet el Dilbeh, the site of Achsah's upper and lower springs (Conder, Pal. Expl.).

A'nim. (fountains). A city in the mountains of Judah, named with Eshtemoh and Goshen. Jos_15:50.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


ā?nim (ענים, ‛ānı̄m, ?springs?): One of the cities of the hill country of Judah mentioned immediately after Eshtemoa (Jos_15:50). It is probably represented by the double ruin of el Ghuwein situated South of es Semu‛a. The surface remains are Byzantine - a Christian town called Anem was here in the 4th century, but it is clearly an ancient site of importance (PEF, III, 408, Sh, XXV).

Anim
(Heb., Anim', עָנִים, fountains; comp. AEnon; Sept. Α᾿είμ v. r. Αἰσάμ), a city in the mountains of the tribe of Judah, mentioned between Eshtemoah and Goshen (Jos_15:50), in the district southwest of Hebron (Keil, Comment. in loc.). Eusebius and Jerome appear to call it Ancea (Α᾿ναιά), and state that it was wholly inhabited by Jews, lying 9 Roman miles south of Hebron, near another village (with which the name likewise closely agrees) called Ansema (Α᾿νσήμ), wholly inhabited by Christians (Onomast. s.v. Α᾿νάμ, Anab). Schwarz (Palest. p. 105) says it is the modern village Ben-Enim, 2 English miles E.N.E. of Hebron, meaning probably Beit- Anim; but this is in a different direction, and is probably the ancient Bethanoth (q.v.). Van de Velde (Memoir, p. 285), although apparently wrong in thinking it may be the Levitical Ain (Jos_21:16), is probably correct in agreeing with the identification by Wilson (Lands of Bible, 1. 354; 2:636) with the village Ghuwein, one hour south of Semoa, on the road from Hebron to Moladah; but unnecessarily supposes the Ain mentioned along with Rimmon (q.v.) in the “south” (Jos_15:32), and apportioned to Simeon (Jos_19:7), to have been a different one, as he is thus obliged to do. SEE AIN.
