Subjects in this Topic:

pū´non (פּוּנן, pūnōn): A desert camp of the Israelites, the second after leaving Mt. Hor (, ). Eusebius (Onom 299 85; 123 9) mentions an Idumean village, North of Petra, in the desert, where convicts were mining copper, called Phinon or Phainon. These are doubtless identical. See WANDERINGS OF ISRAEL.
