The place where Israel, in their journey through the wilderness, encamped. (Numbers 11:35) This name, like some others, Hazerim, Hazar-addar, (Numbers 34:4) Hazah-gadda, (Joshua 15:27) mean one and the same thing. Hazer signifies the entry to the place, or village. Thus Hazezom-Tamar, the entrance to the city of palm trees, the same as Engedi. (See Genesis 14:7)
