<p> ("pruning of palms".) The old name of Engedi, famed for palms. (See [[Engedi.)]] Perhaps this was "the city of palm trees" (&nbsp;Judges 1:16) (though [[Jericho]] is generally called so: &nbsp;Deuteronomy 34:3), from which the Kenites, the tribe of Moses' father-in-law, went into the wilderness of Judah with the children of Judah. Thus, [[Balaam]] standing on a height opposite Jericho, and seeing the western shore of the [[Dead]] Sea to Engedi, appropriately speaks of the [[Kenite]] as having fixed his "nest" in the cliff there (&nbsp;Numbers 24:21). </p>
