<p> <strong> | <p> <strong> [[Jambri]] </strong> . [[A]] robber tribe which attacked and captured a convoy under the charge of John the Maccabee. The outrage was avenged by [[Jonathan]] and Simon, who waylaid and slaughtered a large party of the ‘sons of Jambri’ ( 1Ma 9:35-42 ). </p> | ||

<p> [[Shortly]] after the death of [[Judas]] Maccabatus [[(B.C.]] 161), "the children of Jambri" are said to have made a predatory attack on a detachment of the Maccabean forces, and to have suffered reprisals ( 1 [[Maccabees]] 9:36-41). The name does not occur elsewhere, and the variety of readings is considerable: Ι᾿αμβρί, Ι᾿αμβρεϊ v ν, Ἀμβροί, Ἀμβρί; Syr. ''Ambrei.'' [[Josephus]] ''(.At. 13:'' 1, 2) read οί αιου παῖδες, and it seems almost certain that the true reading is Ἀμρί (-εί ), a form which occurs elsewhere ( 1 Kings 16:22; Joseph. Ant. 8:12 5, Ἀμαρῖνος; 1 Chronicles 27:18, Heb. עָמְרַי,Yulcg. ''Atmri;'' 1 Chronicles 9:4, Ἀμβραϊ v μ, i.e. Amorites. </p> <p> It has been conjectured (Drusius, Michaelis, Grimm, 1 Maccabees 9:36) that the original text was בני אמורי, "the sons of the Amorites," and that the reference is to a family of the [[Amorites]] who had in early times occupied the town [[Medeba]] ( 1 Maccabees 9:36), on the borders of [[Reuben]] ( Numbers 21:30-31). </p> | |||
