A city of Mount Ephraim (Joshua 21:22); given to the Kohathite Levites; ("two heaps".) Jokmeam, similarly meaning a "gathering or confluence", from kamah and amam ). Identified by E. Wilton (Imperial Dictionary) with Kasab, near the confluence of two streams (from whence Kibzaim is derived) on the N.W. boundary of Ephraim (Joshua 16:9; Joshua 17:9-10). (See JOKMEAM.)
From the co-author of the classic Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary, Fausset's Bible Dictionary stands as one of the best single-volume Bible encyclopedias ever written for general use. The author's writing style is always clear and concise, and he tackles issues important to the average student of the Bible, not just the Biblical scholars. This makes Fausset an excellent tool for both everyday Bible study and in-depth lesson or sermon preparation.Wikipedia
