( Joshua 15:6) or Beth-hog'lah (Heb. Beyth Choglah ' , בֵּית חָגְלָה , partridge-house; though Jerome [ Onomast. s.v. Area-atad, where he states that Betag ' A was three miles from Jericho and two from the Jordan] gives another interpretation, Locus Gyri, reading the name בֵּית עִגְלָה , and connecting it with the funeral races or dances at the mourning for Jacob, (See Atad); Sept. Βηθαγλά v. r. Βαιθαγλαάμ , Βεθεγαιώ , Βαιθαλαγά ), a place on the border of Judah ( Joshua 15:6) and of Benjamin ( Joshua 18:19), to which latter tribe it was reckoned as belonging ( Joshua 18:21). Eusebius and Jerome speak ( Onomast. s.v. B Βηθαλαίμ , Bethagla ) of two villages of this name, but they assign them both to the vicinity of Gaza. Josephus ( Ant. 13, 1, 5) reads Bethagla ( Βηθαλαγά , doubtless for Βηθαγαλά ) instead of the BETHBASI (See Bethbasi) (q.v.) of 1 Maccabees 9:62. Dr. Robinson found a ruined site, doubtless the same, called by the Arabs Kusr-Hajla, twenty minutes S.W. by W. of a fine spring in this region called by the same name (Ain-Hajla), although he saw no ruins at the spring itself ( Researches, 2, 268). It was also visited by M. de Saulcy, who states that he picked up large cubes of primitive mosaic at the place, indicating, in his opinion, the existence of a Biblical city in the neighborhood ( Narrative, 2, 35); comp.
