Akrabbim (a-krăb'bim), scorpions. A range of hills on the south border of Judah towards the southern extremity of the Dead Sea; which seems to have been infested with scorpions and serpents. Deuteronomy 8:15; Numbers 34:4; Judges 1:36. Instead of "the ascent of Akrabbim," we have in the Hebrew the name "Maaleh-Acrabbim," scorpion heights, in Joshua 15:3.
