Easton's Bible Dictionary [1]

Joshua 21:35 1 Chronicles 6:77

Fausset's Bible Dictionary [2]

A city of Zebulun given to the Merarite Levites ( Joshua 21:35). Possibly equating to Rimmon ( 1 Chronicles 6:77).

Holman Bible Dictionary [3]

Joshua 21:35 1 Chronicles 6:77 Joshua 19:13Rimmon

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [4]

DIMNAH . A Levitical city in Zebulun ( Joshua 21:35 ). The name is possibly a copyist’s error for Rimmon (cf. 1 Chronicles 6:22 , Joshua 19:13 ).

Morrish Bible Dictionary [5]

Levitical city of Zebulun, Joshua 21:35; but it is not mentioned in the cities of this tribe in Joshua 19:10-16 , and in the Levitical cities of Zebulun in 1 Chronicles 6:77 the name of RIMMON occurs, which makes it appear probable that the two names refer to the same place.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [6]

Dim'nah. (dung). A city in the tribe of Zebulun, given to the Merarite Levites. Joshua 21:35.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]

dim´na ( דּמנה , dimnāh , "dung"; Δαμνά , Damná ): A city of the Merarite Levites in the territory of Zebulun ( Joshua 21:35 ). The name is probably a clerical error for Rimmon.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [8]

(Hebrews Dinznah', דִּמְנָה, a dung-hill; Sept. Δεμνά, Vulg. Danna), a Levitical city of the tribe of Zebulon, assigned to the family of the Merarites ( Joshua 21:35). Gesenius, however, suggests that in this place we ought rather to read רַמֹּנָה, Rimmonah, the REMMON (See Remmon) (q.v.) mentioned in a similar connection in Joshua 19:13; 1 Chronicles 6:62 (see Bertheau, Chronic, pages 72, 73; Movers, Chronik, page 72).
