EPHES-DAMMIM

(Heb. ʾepes dammîm)
(also PAS-DAMMIM)

The area in which the Philistine army camped as they prepared to battle Saul preceding the battle of David and Goliath, located between Socoh and Zekah (1 Sam. 17:1). Although some scholars identify it with modern Damun, ca. 6.5 km. (4 mi.) NE of Socoh, the text suggests it should be W of Socoh. It also occurs as Pas-dammim, where Eleazar, one of David’s Mighty Men, fought alongside David in the midst of a barley field (1 Chr. 11:13).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
