From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   AEnon
      springs, a place near Salim where John baptized (John 3:23).   It

      springs.   A place has been found called 'Ainun, four miles north
      of the springs.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Ahiman
      brother of a gift = liberal. (1.) One of the three giant Anakim
      brothers whom Caleb and the spies saw in Mount Hebron (Num.
      13:22) when they went in to explore the land. They were

         (2.) One of the guardians of the temple after the Exile (1
      Chr. 9:17).

      Anti-Libanus, at the base of which are the sources of the Abana.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Amen
      This Hebrew word means firm, and hence also faithful (Rev.
      3:14). In Isa. 65:16, the Authorized Version has "the God of
      truth," which in Hebrew is "the God of Amen." It is frequently
      used by our Saviour to give emphasis to his words, where it is
      translated "verily." Sometimes, only, however, in John's Gospel,
      it is repeated, "Verily, verily." It is used as an epithet of
      the Lord Jesus Christ (Rev. 3:14).
     
         It is found singly and sometimes doubly at the end of prayers
      (Ps. 41:13; 72:19; 89:52), to confirm the words and invoke the
      fulfilment of them. It is used in token of being bound by an
      oath (Num. 5:22; Deut. 27:15-26; Neh. 5:13; 8:6; 1 Chr. 16:36).
      In the primitive churches it was common for the general audience
      to say "Amen" at the close of the prayer (1 Cor. 14:16).
     
         The promises of God are Amen; i.e., they are all true and sure
      (2 Cor. 1:20).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Ammon
      another form of the name Ben-ammi, the son of Lot (Gen. 19:38).

      Ezra (1 Chr. 4:20; comp. 17).
     
         (2.) The eldest son of David, by Ahinoam of Jezreel (1 Chr.
      3:1; 2 Sam. 3:2). Absalom caused him to be put to death for his

      builder. (1.) The governor of Samaria in the time of Ahab. The
      prophet Micaiah was committed to his custody (1 Kings 22:26; 2
      Chr. 18:25).
     
         (2.) The son of Manasseh, and fourteenth king of Judah. He
      restored idolatry, and set up the images which his father had
      cast down. Zephaniah (1:4; 3:4, 11) refers to the moral
      depravity prevailing in this king's reign.
     
         He was assassinated (2 Kings 21:18-26: 2 Chr. 33:20-25) by his
      own servants, who conspired against him.
     
         (3.) An Egyptian god, usually depicted with a human body and
      the head of a ram, referred to in Jer. 46:25, where the word
      "multitudes" in the Authorized Version is more appropriately
      rendered "Amon" in the Revised Version. In Nah. 3:8 the
      expression "populous No" of the Authorized version is rendered
      in the Revised Version "No-amon." Amon is identified with Ra,
      the sun-god of Heliopolis.
     
         (4.) Neh. 7:59.
