Carnaim [1]

kar -nā´im , kar´nā̇ -im ( Καρνείν , Karneı́n , 1 Macc 5:26, Καρναίν , Karnaı́n , verses 43 f, τὸ Κάρνιον , tó Kárnion , 2 Macc 12:21, 26): One of the strong cities besieged and captured by Judas Maccabeus in his campaign East of the Jordan (1 Macc 5:26, 43 f). In the temple of Atargatis, which was situated here, those who fled from the city were put to death. It is apparently identical with Ashteroth Karnaim. It is called Camion in 2 Macc 12:21.
