Ammon, Ammonites, Ammonitess

Facts

The "people of Ammon" or the "Ammonites" were descended from Ben-ammi, the son of Lot by his younger daughter.

  • The term "Ammonitess" refers specifically to a female Ammonite. This could also be translated as, "Ammonite woman."
  • The Ammonites lived east of the Jordan River and were enemies of the Israelites.
  • At one point, the Ammonites hired a prophet named Balaam to curse Israel, but God did not allow it.
