Morrish Bible Dictionary [1]
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.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]
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 ).
