Commentary on Joshua 19:212 voices
En-gannim - i. e. fountain of gardens; also a Levitical city Jos 21:29, and called Ahem 1Ch 6:73, the modern Jenin, a place on the main road from Jerusalem to Nazareth, just where it enters the plain of Jezreel. Many of the places enumerated in these verses are not known. Tabor Jos 19:22 is perhaps not the famous mountain, but the town on it of the same name 1Ch 6:77, given up to the Levites. Beth-shemesh (perhaps Bessum) is not the same as Beth-shemesh of Judah Jos 15:10, nor of Naphtali Jos 19:38.

And Remeth,.... Remeth seems to be the same with Jarmuth, Jos 21:29; and with Ramoth, 1Ch 6:73, and Engannim seems to be the same with Anem in 1Ch 6:73, there were several of this name, which seem to have been places full of gardens, and well watered; for the word signifies a fountain of gardens.

- 2 Kings 9:27
When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled up the road toward Beth-haggan. And Jehu pursued him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam, and he fled to Megiddo and died there.
Commentary on 2 Kings 9:272 voices
By the way of the garden-house - Or by the way of Beth-Gan, which has been conjectured to be another name for En-Gannim, the spring of the gardens. Both are considered identical with Ginaea, the modern Jenin, which lies due south of Jezreeh The road from Jezreel (Zerin) to Jenin passes at first along the plain of Esdraelon, but after a while begins to rise over the Samaritan hills. Here probably was the ascent of Gur, by Ibleam, which may have occupied the site of the modern Jelama. Whether the soldiers attacked him there or not is uncertain.

Ahaziah--was grandnephew to King Joram, and great-grandson to King Ahab. Ibleam--near Megiddo, in the tribe of Issachar (Jos 17:11; Jud 1:27); and Gur was an adjoining hill.
