| <p> (Heb., Anim', '''''עָנִים''''' , ''Fountains;'' comp. ''Aenon;'' Sept. '''''Ἀείμ''''' v. r. '''''Αἰσάμ''''' ) '','' a city in the mountains of the tribe of Judah, mentioned between Eshtemoah and [[Goshen]] ( Joshua 15:50), in the district southwest of [[Hebron]] (Keil, ''Comment.'' in loc.). [[Eusebius]] and [[Jerome]] appear to call it ''Ancea'' ( '''''Ἀναιά''''' ) '','' and state that it was wholly inhabited by Jews, lying 9 Roman miles south of Hebron, near another village (with which the name likewise closely agrees) called ''Ansema'' ( '''''Ἀνσήμ''''' ), wholly inhabited by [[Christians]] ( ''Onomast.'' s.v. '''''Ἀνάμ''''' , Anab). Schwarz ( ''Palest.'' p. 105) says it is the modern village Ben-Enim, 2 English miles E.N.E. of Hebron, meaning probably Beit- Anim; but this is in a different direction, and is probably the ancient [[Bethanoth]] (q.v.). [[Van]] de Velde (Memoir, p. 285), although apparently wrong in thinking it may be the [[Levitical]] Ain ( Joshua 21:16), is probably correct in agreeing with the identification by Wilson ( ''Lands Of Bible,'' 1. 354; 2:636) with the village ''Ghuwein,'' one hour south of Semoa, on the road from Hebron to Moladah; but unnecessarily supposes the Ain mentioned along with [[Rimmon]] (q.v.) in the "south" ( Joshua 15:32), and apportioned to [[Simeon]] ( Joshua 19:7), to have been a different one, as he is thus obliged to do. (See [[Ain]]). </p>
