Irhat-temarim

Ir-hat-Temarim (עַיר הִתּמָרַים, city of the palms, so called prob. from a palm grove in its neighborhood; Sept. πόλις φοινίκων, or ἡ πόλις τῶν φοινίκων, Vulg. civitas palmarum, Auth. Vers. "city of palmtrees"), a place near or identical with JERICHO (De 34:3; Jg 1:16; Jg 3:13; 2Ch 28:15), which now, however, is utterly destitute of palm- trees.
