Meaning: palm; palm-tree · 2 cross references · Modern-day map available
This Tamar entry refers to the southern or south-eastern place-name in prophetic and boundary traditions, not to the woman Tamar. It is important because the same word can function either as a personal name or a location. First appears in Ezek 47:19.1
AI summary: Tamar matters here because prophetic geography and boundary descriptions preserve a place-name that must be distinguished from the more familiar personal narratives. The cross references present this Tamar as a southern landmark in the wider desert-edge map.1
