The name "En-eglaim" is often understood to mean "spring of two calves" or "fountain of calves," derived from the Hebrew words "en" (spring or fountain) and "eglaim" (calves). This site is noted for its eschatological significance in the vision of the prophet Ezekiel.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>En-eglaim is mentioned in <a href="/ezekiel/47-10.htm">Ezekiel 47:10</a>, which describes a vision of a restored land where life flourishes. The passage reads: "Fishermen will stand by it from En-gedi to En-eglaim; there will be places for spreading nets. The fish will be of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea." <br><br>In this context, En-eglaim is part of a prophetic vision concerning the future transformation of the Dead Sea region. The vision depicts a miraculous flow of water from the temple in Jerusalem, turning the Dead Sea into a body of fresh water teeming with life. En-eglaim, along with En-gedi, is highlighted as a location where fishermen will gather, indicating a dramatic change from the current lifeless state of the Dead Sea.<br><br><b>Geographical and Historical Context:</b><br><br>The exact location of En-eglaim is not definitively known, but it is generally believed to be situated near the Dead Sea. Some scholars suggest it may have been located on the eastern shore, possibly in the vicinity of modern-day Jordan. The mention of En-eglaim alongside En-gedi, which is located on the western shore of the Dead Sea, suggests that these two points mark the extent of the transformed region in Ezekiel's vision.<br><br>Historically, the Dead Sea region has been characterized by its high salinity and lack of aquatic life, making the prophecy of abundant fish and fishermen a powerful symbol of divine intervention and restoration. The transformation of this area into a thriving ecosystem serves as a metaphor for the renewal and blessing that God promises to His people.<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b><br><br>From a theological perspective, En-eglaim in Ezekiel's vision represents the hope of restoration and the fulfillment of God's promises. The transformation of the Dead Sea into a life-giving body of water symbolizes the renewal of creation and the establishment of God's kingdom on earth. This vision aligns with the broader biblical theme of redemption and the ultimate restoration of all things.<br><br>The mention of En-eglaim also underscores the inclusivity of God's blessings, extending from En-gedi to En-eglaim, suggesting a comprehensive renewal that encompasses the entire region. This reflects the biblical narrative of God's desire to restore not only His people but also the land itself, bringing about a new creation where life and abundance prevail.<br><br>In summary, En-eglaim serves as a significant geographical and symbolic marker in the prophetic literature of the Old Testament, illustrating the transformative power of God's presence and the hope of future restoration.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">En-Eglaim</span><p>eye, or fountain, of calves<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Fountain of two calves, a place mentioned only in <a href="/ezekiel/47-10.htm">Ezek. 47:10</a>.
