(Hebrews Egla'yim, אֶגְלִיַם , two Ponds; Sept. Ἀγαλείμ , Vulg. Gallim), a place named in Isaiah 15:8, apparently as one of the most remote points on the boundary of Moab. It is probably the same as the EN-EGLAIM (See En-Eglaim) (q.v.) of Ezekiel 47:10. Eusebius and Jerome (Onomast. s.v . Ἀγαλλείμ , Agalleim) say that it still existed in their day as a village ( Αἰγαλλαιμ ), eight miles south of Areoplis, i.e., Ar-Moab. Exactly in that position, however, stands Kerak, the ancient Kir-Moab. A town named Agalla ( ῎Αγαλλα ) is mentioned, by Josephus with Zoar and other places as in the country of the Arabians (Ant. 14:1, 4). Some have also confounded it with GALLIM (See Gallim) (q.v.). De Saulcy conceives Eglaim to be the same with a place which he names Wady Ajerrah, not far north of the ruins of Rabbah, but on slender grounds (Dead Sea, 1:262, 270). (See Eglath); (See Eglon) 3.
