Only in Jeremiah 51:27, as the name of a province in Armenia, which was at this time under the Median kings. Armenia is regarded by some as = Har-minni i.e., the mountainous country of Minni. (See ARMENIA.)
reckoned; prepared
A district of Armenia.
Jeremiah 51:27
(division), (Jeremiah 51:27) already noticed as a portion of Armenia. [ARMENIA]
Distribution, an Ammonitish town (Judges 11:33) from which wheat was exported to Tyre (Ezekiel 27:17). It was probably somewhere in the Mishor or table-land on the east of Jordan. There is a gentle valley running for about 4 miles east of Dhiban called Kurm Dhiban, "the vineyards of Dibon." Tristram supposes that this may be the "vineyards" mentioned in Judg. (l.c.).
same as Minni
A place east of the Jordan.
Judges 11:33; Ezekiel 27:17
(distribution), a place on the east of the Jordan, named as the point to which Jephthah's slaughter of the Ammonites extended. (Judges 11:33) The "wheat of Minnith" is mentioned in (Ezekiel 27:17) as being supplied by Judah and Isr'l to Tyre; but there is nothing to indicate that the same place is intended, and indeed the word is believed by some not to be a proper name.
