Senses in use

  1. Place name in borders and a city list · dominant

    The form is tagged Noun · Proper in all three verses. In Joshua 15:6 the APB renders a border ascending to “Beth-hoglah”; in Joshua 18:19 it renders the border passing its northern shoulder; and in Joshua 18:21 it includes the name among Benjamin's cities.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB consistently presents the name as “Beth-hoglah,” within two border descriptions and a list of cities. This identifies the verse-level presentation rather than a separate English definition.
