<p> ( | <p> ''''' kān ''''' ( הקּתן , <i> ''''' ha ''''' </i> - <i> ''''' ḳayin ''''' </i> ; the King James Version [[Cain]] ): A town in the hill country of Judah ( Joshua 15:57 ). There is, too, apparently a reference to this place in Numbers 24:21 , Numbers 24:22 : "And he looked on the Kenite, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwelling-place, And thy nest is set in the rock. Nevertheless [[Kain]] shall be wasted, Until [[Asshur]] shall carry thee away captive." </p> <p> This place has been very doubtfully identified as the ruin <i> ''''' Yukı̄n ''''' </i> , a place on a lofty hill Southeast of Hebron, overlooking the wilderness of Judah; the tomb of Cain is shown there. See <i> Pef </i> , III, 312, Sh Xxi . </p> | ||
