RIMMON PAREZ or RIMMON PEREZ. A station in Israel's marches (Numbers 33:19-20) ("the pomegranate of the breach.") Probably the scene of God's breaking forth in wrath, as at Korah's rebellion (compare 2 Samuel 6:8; Job 16:14).

(Heb. Rimmon' Pe'rets, פֶּרֶוֹ רַמּוֹן [in pause, Pa'rets, פָּרֶוֹ ], pomegranate of the breach, so called probably from some local configuration; Sept. ῾Ρεμμὼν Φαρές ), the second-named station of the Israelites in the desert after leaving Hazeroth, and located between Rithmah and Libnah (Numbers 33:20). It was somewhere in the northern interior of the Desert et-Tih, west of Kadesh-Barnea. (See Exode).
