(Zimʹran).

First named of the six sons Keturah bore to Abraham. Zimran and his five full brothers were given gifts and sent into “the land of the East.” (Ge 25:1, 2, 6; 1Ch 1:32) The conjecture of some is that Zimran’s descendants were associated either with Zabram, a town situated W of Mecca on the Arabian shore of the Red Sea, or with Zimri, mentioned in Jeremiah 25:25.
