Nimrim, the Waters of
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
NIMRIM, THE WATERS OF ( Isaiah 15:6 , Jeremiah 48:34 ). Named along with Zoar and Horonaim, and must therefore be sought in the S. of Moab. The Onomasticon (‘Nemerim’) places it to the N. of Zoar. The name seems to be found in Wâdy N’meirah , which opens on the E. shore, at Burj en-N’meirah , about three miles from the S. end of the Dead Sea.
