<p> (Heb. Yattir', יִתַּיר [in Joshua 15:48, elsewhere "defectively" יִתַּר ], pre-eminent; Sept. Ι᾿εθέρ or Ι᾿έθερ), a city in the mountains of [[Judah]] (Joshua 15:48, where it is named between [[Shamir]] and Socoh) assigned to the priests (Joshua 21:14; 1 Chronicles 6:57). It was one of the places in the south where [[David]] used to haunt in his freebooting days, and to his friends in which he sent gifts from the spoil of the enemies of [[Jehovah]] (1 Samuel 30:27). The two [[Ithrite]] heroes of David's guard (2 Samuel 23:38; 1 Chronicles 11:40) were possibly from Jattir, living memorials to him of his early difficulties. According to [[Eusebius]] and [[Jerome]] (Onomast. s.v. Jether), it was in their day a very large hamlet inhabited by Christians, twenty [[Roman]] miles from Eleutheropolis, in the district of the Daroma, near Molatha (Reland, Palcest. p. 885). It is named by Hap-Parchi, the [[Jewish]] traveler; but the passage is defective, and little can be gathered from it (Zunz, in Asher's Benj. of Tudela, 2, 442). The required position answers nearly to that of the modern village of ‘ Attir, discovered by Dr. Robinson (Researches, 2, 194, 625) in this region, "marked by caves upon a hill" (comp. Wilson, Lands of Bible, i, 353), and situated fifteen miles south of Hebron, and five north of [[Moladah]] (Schwarz, Palestine, p. 105). It contains extensive ruins (Tristram, Land of Israel, p. 388). </p>
