(Heb. Iyism', עַיַּים uins, as in Jeremiah 26:18, etc.), the name of two places.

1. (Sept. Αἰείμ, Vulg. Iim.) A city in the extreme south of Judah, mentioned between Baalah and Azem (Joshua 15:29), and therefore doubtless included within the territory set off to Simeon, as the associated places were (Joshua 19:3), which afford the only means for a conjectural position nearly midway from the Dead Sea towards the Mediterranean.

2. (Sept. Τα , Vulg. Ijeabarim), both reading the same as in the preceding verse.). One of the stations of the Israelites not long before reaching the Jordan (Numbers 33:45); usually called fully IJE-ABARIM (Numbers 33:44).
