Mahanaim

Mahanaim (Hebrew: מַחֲניִם‎ meaning two camps in Hebrew) is a place mentioned a number of times by the Bible said to be near Jabbok, beyond the Jordan River. Although two possible sites have been identified, the precise location of Mahanaim is very uncertain. The most widely accepted of the proposed sites lies about ten miles east of the Jordan River. Tell edh-Dhahab el-Gharbi, the western one of the twin Tulul adh-Dhahab tells, is a possible location. Mahanaim was said to be in the same general area as Jabesh-gilead. The dance of Mahanaim is mentioned in Song of Solomon 6:13.
