BEROTHAH, BEROTHAI . A city of Syria, despoiled by David ( 2 Samuel 8:8 ), and named by Ezekiel as a limiting point in his ideal restoration of the kingdom ( Ezekiel 47:16 ). Ezekiel places it between Hamath and Damascus; the site is otherwise unknown. In 1 Chronicles 18:8 , which is parallel to 2 Samuel 8:8 , for Berothai is substituted Cun. [Berothite in 1 Chronicles 11:39 is obviously meant for Beerothite . See Beeroth].

R. A. S. Macalister.
