<p> <strong> [[Atharim]] </strong> ( Numbers 21:1 ). [[Either]] a proper name of a place from which the route was named; so | <p> <strong> [[Atharim]] </strong> ( Numbers 21:1 ). [[Either]] a proper name of a place from which the route was named; so RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘the way of Atharim,’ as LXX [Note: Septuagint.] , or, ‘the way of tracks,’ <em> i.e. </em> a regular caravan road. (The rendering of AV [Note: Authorized Version.] , ‘way of the spies,’ follows Targ. and Syr.) The ‘way of Atharim’ will then be that described in Numbers 13:21-25 . </p> | ||

<p> (Hebrews Atharinm', אֲתָרַים, '' | <p> (Hebrews Atharinm', אֲתָרַים, ''Regions;'' Sept. Ἀθαρείμ ), a place in the south of [[Palestine]] near which the [[Israelites]] passed on their way thither ( Numbers 21:1, where the English version improperly renders דֶּרֶךְ הָאֲתָרַים, "''The Way Of The Spies;"'' see Gesenius, ''Thes. Heb.'' p. 171). It was, perhaps, a general designation of the region north of Mount [[Seir]] through which the [[Canaanites]] presumed that the Israelites were about to pass, as indeed they would have done but for the Edomites' refusal of a passage to them. (See Exoic). </p> | ||
