n.f. dub., only pl. הַמִּנְהָרוֹת אֲשֶׁר בֶּהָרִים Ju 6:2 (+ הַמְּעָרוֹת caves, הַמְּצָדוֹת strong-holds)—(clearly, si vera l., from a √ נהר, but with what meaning? Schultens Jb 49 comp. Arabic مِنْهَرَةٌ, مِنْهَرٌ [which means a place hollowed out by water], and rend. crevices, ravines, so Thes al.; Rashi Ki Wetzst Hauran, 46 think of caves with a light-opening; R. Levi ben Gerson beacons, i.e. towers for fire-signals, GFM; but ii. נהר late in Heb.; 𝔊 τρυμαλίας, 𝔙 antra; Bu thinks הַמְּעָרוֹת a gloss explaining הַמִּנ׳).
