Zuzim

ZUZIM

zu'-zim (zuzim; (ethne ischura, "strong nations." So Jerome in Quaest. Hebr.:

genres fortes): A people conquered by Chedorlaomer (Genesis 14:5). They dwelt in Ham, a region not otherwise known but, from the connection, inferred to be East of the Jordan. It may also be inferred that they were a race of giants. They were perhaps to be identified with the Zamzummim.
