Te'lem. (oppression).

1. One of the cities, in the extreme south of Judah, Joshua 15:24, probably the aame as Telaim. The name, Dhullam, is found in Van Deuteronomy Velde's map, attached to a district, immediately to the north of the Kubbet el-Baul, south of el Milh and Ar'arah - a position very suitable.

2. A porter, or doorkeeper, of the Temple, in the time of Ezra. Ezra 10:24. He is probably the same as Talmon in Nehemiah 12:25.
