Adami-nekeb

Adami-nekeb according to the Revised Version, or Adami-hannekeb (, i.e. the pass Adami), is a place mentioned in the Hebrew Bible Book of Joshua , as a passage on the frontier of Naphtali.

The Vulgate gives , while the King James Version translates as two separate names, "Adami" and "Nekeb", as does the Septuagint: ( B), or ( A) . The Jerusalem Talmud (Megillah 11) also divides the expression, Adami being represented as Damin, and Hannekeb as Caidatah.

Adolf Neubauer and George Adam Smith identify Adami with Damieh, 5 miles west of Tiberias, the site proposed by the Palestine Exploration Survey for the 'fenced city' Adamah of Joshua 19:36. This, notes T. K. Cheyne, seems too far south considering that the 'tree of Bezaanim' (see Zaanaim) was close to Kedesh, while Jabneel appears to have been a north Galilean fortress. These are the two localities between which Adami-nekeb is mentioned in Joshua 19:33. It is probable that the name Nkbu in the Karnak list of Thutmose III means the pass Adami.
