Ammadim [1]
Gam'madim. This word occurs only in Ezekiel 27:11. A variety of explanations of the term have been offered.
1. One class renders it "pygmies".
2. A second treats it as a geographical or local term.
3. A third gives a more general sense to the word "brave warriors". Hitzig suggests "deserters". After all, the rendering in the Septuagint (LXX) - "guards" - furnishes the simplest explanation.
