Place marking the waters' extent · dominant
In Judges 7:24, the form is tagged as a proper noun and occurs in Gideon's instruction to capture the waters as far as this place and the Jordan; the APB renders the place name "Beth-barah" in both the command and its reported fulfillment.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Judges 7:24, the APB presents the name as "Beth-barah" alongside the waters and the Jordan. It confirms the verse's place-reference without further defining the term.
