Bithron:
Bithron or Bether is probably the same as Betarus, which is placed in the Antonine Itinerary between Caesarea of Palestine and Diospolis or Lydda, 18 miles from the former, and 22 from the latter. The Jerusalem Itinerary mentions a place called Bethar, 16 miles from Caesarea, and 20 from Diospolis, which is probably the same. The Talmudists say that it was four miles distant from the sea. "Until¹ the dayª¹ break,ª° and the shadowsª flee away,ª° turn,ª° my beloved,ª and be thou likeª° a roeª or¹ a youngª hartª upon¹ the mountainsª of Bether.ª" {Sgs 2:17}, Bether
Mahanaim:
"And Abnerª the sonª of Ner,ª and the servantsª of Ishboshethª the sonª of Saul,ª went outª° from Mahanaimª¹ to Gibeon.ª" {2Sm 2:12}
