Θεμμών and Νοεμμών), a town of Naphtali, assigned to the Gershonite Levites, and appointed to be one of the cities of refuge ( Joshua 21:32).

The associated names suggest the probability of some locality near the north-western shore of the Sea of Tiberias, perhaps the ruined village marked as el-Katanah on [[Van]] de Velde's map, on wady Furam, about midway between Lake [[Tiberias]] and the Huleh. </p> | <p> (Heb.
