Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
Kadmonites . One of the nations whose land was promised to Abram’s seed ( Genesis 15:19 ). Their habitat was probably in the region of the Dead Sea. The fact that Kedemah is said to be a son of Ishmael ( Genesis 25:15 ) renders it likely that they were Ishmaelite Arabs. Ewald, however, regarded Qadmoni as equivalent to B e ne Qedhem (‘Sons of the East’) which seems to have been a general name applied to the Keturahite tribes (see Genesis 25:1-6 ).
W. M. Nesbit.
American Tract Society Bible Dictionary [2]
Genesis 15:19 , a tribe of Canaanites who inhabited the promised land east of the Jordan, about mount Hermon. Some have fancied that Cadmus, the supposed inventor of the Greek alphabet, and who came from the East, was a Kadmonite. If so, he only introduced into Greece the alphabet of his own country, since the Greek letters are obviously derived from the Phoenician or ancient Hebrew letters.
Watson's Biblical & Theological Dictionary [3]
ancient inhabitants of the land of Canaan, whose habitation was beyond Jordan, to the east of Phenicia, Genesis 15:19 . The Kadmonites were descended from Canaan, the son of Ham.
