zamzummims |
2 definitions found From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]: Zamzummims a race of giants; "a people great, and many and tall, as the Anakims" (Deut. 2:20, 21). They were overcome by the Ammonites, "who called them Zamzummims." They belonged to the Rephaim, and inhabited the country afterwards occupied by the Ammonites. It has been conjectured that they might be Ham-zuzims, i.e., Zuzims dwelling in Ham, a place apparently to the south of Ashteroth (Gen. 14:5), the ancient Rabbath-ammon. From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]: Zamzummims, projects of crimes; enormous crimes
