Nimrah (place name east of Jordan)
This Transjordanian location appears in Numbers 32:3 among the cities the tribes of Reuben and Gad requested as inheritance. The name possibly relates to 'leopard' or to 'clear/fresh water,' and the site is likely Tell Nimrin, about six miles east of the Jordan near Jericho. The territory was suitable for livestock (the reason Reuben and Gad wanted it), with adequate water and grazing. Moses initially interpreted their request as refusal to join the conquest, but they clarified: they would fight alongside their brothers, then return to these eastern lands.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — This proper noun in Numbers 32:3 identifies a Transjordanian settlement. Spanish 'y Nimrá' and translations across languages preserve it as a transliteration. The site is associated with Beth-nimrah elsewhere, suggesting 'house of Nimrah' or 'house of the leopard.' Geographic names often encoded features of landscape or fauna; the region may have been known for leopard activity, or the name may derive from the clear waters of the area. 1×
