<p> <translit> ad´a </translit> - <translit> mı̄ </translit> ; <translit> a </translit> - <translit> dā´mı̄ </translit> : [[Mentioned]] in the [[King]] [[James]] [[Version]] as a separate name, where the [[Revised]] Version (British and American) has <a> ADAMI-NEKEB </a> , which see ( <span> [[Joshua]] 19:33 </span> ). </p>

<p> (Heb. Adami', <span> אֲדָמַי </span> <span> , reddish; </span> Sept. <span> Ἀδεμμί </span> , Vulg. <span> Adami), </span> a city near the border of Naphtali, mentioned between [[Zaanaim]] and [[Nekeb]] ( <span> [[Joshua]] 19:33 </span> ). The best interpreters (e.g. Rosenm <span> ü </span> ller, Keil, in loc.) join this with the following name, Nekeb ( <span> הִנֶּקֶב </span> , i. q. in <span> the hollow; </span> so the Vulg. <span> quae </span> est Neceb, but the Sept. distinguishes them, <span> καὶ </span> <span> Νάκεβ </span> ), as if an epithet of the same place; although the [[Jerusalem]] [[Talmud]] (Megillah, 70, 1) makes them distinct, and calls the former [[Damin]] ( <span> דָּמַין </span> ), which Schwarz <span> (Palest. </span> p. 181) supposes identical with a "village <span> [[Dame]] </span> 5 [[English]] miles west of the S.W. point of the [[Sea]] of Tiberias," meaning the ruined site <span> Dameh </span> (Robinson, <span> Researches, </span> 3, 237), falling on the limits of Naphtali. (See <a> TRIBE </a> ). The place appears to be the same elsewhere ( <span> Joshua 19:36 </span> ) called ADAMAH (See <a> ADAMAH </a> ) (q.v.), and the enumeration in ver. 38 requires the collocation <span> Adanminekeb </span> as one locality. (See <a> NEKEB </a> ). </p>
