James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Michmethah


Subjects in this Topic:

MICHMETHAH.—The word occurs only in Jos_16:6; Jos_17:7, in each case with the article, therefore probably not a proper name. Of the meaning of the word we are entirely ignorant. It indicated a place or some natural feature on the boundary of Manasseh. An echo of the old name may perhaps be heard in el-Mukhneh, the plain which lies to the east of Nâbins.
