press of the pomegranate. (1.) A Levitical city in the tribe of Dan (Jos 19:45; 21:24; 1Ch 6:69).
(2.) Another city of the same name in Manasseh, west of the Jordan (Jos 21:25), called also Bileam (1Ch 6:70).
Fausets
("winepress of the pomegranates".)
1. A city of Dan, given to the Levites (Jos 19:45; 21:24; 1Ch 6:69). On the Philistine plain.
2. A town of Manasseh, W. of Jordan, assigned to the Levites (Jos 21:25). But Bileam (i.e. Ibleam, Jos 17:11) in 1Ch 6:70, which is probably the true reading in Joshua, the copyist's eye catching "Gath-rimmon" in the previous verse.
Hastings
1. A city in Dan, near Jebud and Bene-herak (Jos 19:45), assigned to the Kohathites (Jos 21:24), and reckoned (1Ch 6:69) to Ephraim. It is unidentified. 2. A city of Manasseh, assigned to the Kohathites (Jos 21:25). Septuagint has Iebatha (B), or Baithsa (A), while 1Ch 6:70 has Bileam = Ibleam (wh. see). The position of the town is not indicated, so in this confusion no identification is possible.
