Chimham (kĭm'hăm), longing. A follower, and probably a son, of Barzillai the Gileadite, who returned from beyond Jordan with David. 2 Samuel 19:37-38; 2 Samuel 19:40 (b.c. 1023). David appears to have bestowed on him a possession at Bethlehem, on which, in later times, an inn or khan was standing. Jeremiah 41:17.
