Janim

Janim ("slumber") was a Judean hill country town named in Joshua 15:53 in the catalog of the second hill country district: "And Janum, and Beth-tappuah, and Aphekah." The KJV reading "Janum" is the same site. The town appears only in this single boundary list and is uncertain in location. It lay in the highlands south of Hebron, in the cluster of small farming and shepherding settlements that filled the central Judean spine toward the Negev frontier.
