<p> (Hebrews Kamon', קָמוֹן '','' perhaps '' | <p> (Hebrews Kamon', '''''קָמוֹן''''' '','' perhaps ''Full Of Stalks'' or grain; Sept. '''''Καμών''''' v. r. '''''῾Ραμνών''''' ) '','' the place in which Jair (q.v.) the Judge was buried ( Judges 10:5). As the scriptural notices of him all refer to the country east of Jordan, there is no reason against accepting the statement of [[Josephus]] (Ant. v. 7, 6) that Camon ( '''''Καμῶν''''' ) was a city of Gilead. In support of this is the mention by [[Polybius]] (v. 70, 12) of a ''Crmus'' ( '''''Καμοῦς''''' , for '''''Καμοῦν''''' ) in company with [[Pella]] and other trans-Jordanic places taken by [[Antiochus]] (Reland, ''Palcest.'' p. 679; Ritter, ''Erdk. 15:'' 1026). [[Eusebius]] and [[Jerome]] ''(Onomast. S.V. '''''Καμών''''' ,'' Camon) evidently confound it with the [[Cyamon]] ( Judith 7:3) in the plain of Esdraelon; and this has misled Schwarz ''(Palest.'' p. 233). It is possibly the modern ''Reimun'' (comp. the Sept. reading ''Rhamon),'' four and a half miles west-north-west of [[Jerash]] or [[Gerasa]] (Van de Velde's ''Map).'' </p> | ||
