Bealoth
Bealoth
(Heb. Bealoth’, , the plur. fem. of Baal, signifying prob. citizens; Sept. v. r. and ), the name of two places.
1. A town in the southern part of Judah (i.e. in Simeon), mentioned in connection with Telem and Hazor (Jos 15:24); evidently different from either of the two places called Baalath (Jos 15:9; Jos 15:29), but probably the same as the BAALATH-BEER SEE BAALATH-BEER (q.v.) of chap. 19:8. Schwarz (Palest. p. 100) thinks it is a Kulat al-Baal situated 7.5 English miles S.E. of Telem and N.W. of Zapha; but no such names appear on any modern map, and the region indicated is entirely south of the bounds of Palestine.
2. A district of Asher, of which Baanah ben-Hushai was Solomon’s commissariat (1Ki 4:16, where the Auth. Vers. renders incorrectly in Aloth, Sept. , Vulg. in Baloth); apparently = adjacent cities, i.e. the sea-coast, where the river Beleus (, Joseph. War, 2, 10:2) may be a trace of the name. SEE BELUS. Schwarz (Palest. p. 237) unnecessarily identifies it with Baal-gad or Laish.
