<p> (Heb. Beyth Pellet, בֵּית פֶּלֶט, '' | <p> (Heb. Beyth Pellet, בֵּית פֶּלֶט, ''House Of Escape,'' but found only "in pause," ''Beyth Pallet, בֵּית'' פּ לֶט [or בֵּיתאּ ]; Sept. Βηθφέλεθ and Βηθφαλάτ or Βαιθφαλάθ ), one of the towns in the extreme south of Judah (i.e. assigned to Simeon), named between [[Heshmon]] and Hazar-shual ( Joshua 15:27), and inhabited after the captivity ( Nehemiah 11:26, where it is Anglicized "Beth-phelet"). It corresponds possibly to the "considerable ruin" on ''Tell El-Kuseifeh'' (Robinson's ''Researches,'' 2, 620), a short distance N.E. of [[Moladah]] (Van de Velde, ''Map'' )''.'' </p> <p> Lieut. Conder suggests (Quarterly Statement of the "Pal. Explor. Fund," January, 1875, p. 26) that from position it might very well correspond to el-Hora (drawing of water), a place remarkable for its number of cisterns and reservoirs, the buildings being of flint throughout. </p> | ||
