En-gannim [EBD]
fountain of gardens. (1.) A town in the plains of Judah (Josh. 15:34), north-west of Jerusalem, between Zanoah and Tappuah. It is the modern Umm Jina.
(2.) A city on the border of Machar (Josh. 19:21), allotted to the Gershonite Levites (21:29). It is identified with the modern Jenin, a large and prosperous town of about 4,000 inhabitants, situated 15 miles south of Mount Tabor, through which the road from Jezreel to Samaria and Jerusalem passes. When Ahaziah, king of Judah, attempted to escape from Jehu, he "fled by the way of the garden house" i.e., by way of En-gannim. Here he was overtaken by Jehu and wounded in his chariot, and turned aside and fled to Megiddo, a distance of about 20 miles, to die there.
En-haddah [NAVE]
EN-HADDAH, a city of Issachar, Josh. 19:21.EN-GANNIM [ISBE]
EN-GANNIM - en-gan'-im (`en gannim, "spring of gardens"):(1) A town in the territory of Judah, named with Zanoah and Eshtaol (Josh 15:34). It is probably identical with the modern Umm Jina, South of Wady ec-Carar, not far from Zanoah (Zanu`a).
(2) A town in the lot of Isaachat (Josh 19:21), assigned to the Gershonite Levites (21:29). In 1 Ch 6:73 it is replaced by Anem. It probably corresponds to the Ginnea of Josephus (Ant., XX, vi, 1; BJ, III, iii, 4), and may certainly be identified with the modern Jenin, a prosperous village on the southern edge of the plain of Esdraelon, with beautiful gardens, fruitful orchards and plentiful supplies of water from the local springs.

EN-HADDAH [ISBE]
EN-HADDAH - en-had'-a (`en chaddah, "swift fountain"): A town in the lot of Issachar mentioned along with En-gannim (Josh 19:21). It is probably identical with Kefr Adan, a village some 3 miles West of Jenin.
