<p> | <p> [[Mizraim]] (''mĭ'' ''z'ră-'' ''ĭm'' or ''miz-râ'im'' ), ''limits, borders.'' The name by which the Hebrews generally designated Egypt, apparently from Mizraim, the son or Ham. Genesis 10:6; Genesis 10:13. Called in English versions Egypt. Genesis 45:20; Genesis 46:34; Genesis 47:6; Genesis 47:13. Sometimes it seems to be employed to designate ''lower'' Egypt, to the exclusion of [[Pathros]] or ''upper'' Egypt. Isaiah 11:11; Jeremiah 44:15. See Egypt. </p> | ||
