MEUNIM, MEUNITES

(Heb. mĕʿûnîm)

A Transjordanian people, permanently exterminated by Israelite clans seeking pasture land for their flocks (1 Chr. 4:41). In 2 Chr. 26:7 they are one of the groups in Philistia overcome by King Uzziah of Judah. Ezra 2:50 = Neh. 7:52 includes Meunim in a list of temple servants returning to Jerusalem after the Exile. Here the term, like most in the list, probably refers to a group among the temple servants, perhaps from the town of Maon.

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.
