Hazezon Tamar

Fausset's Bible Dictionary

("pruning of palms".) The old name of Engedi, famed for palms. (See Engedi .) Perhaps this was "the city of palm trees" ( Judges 1:16) (though Jericho is generally called so:  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 ( Numbers 24:21).
