(Heb. Beyth Haran', בֵּית הָרָן, a variation of Beth-Haram; Sept. Βαιθαράν ), one of the "fenced cities" on the east of Jordan, "built" by the Gadites (Numbers 32:36). It is named with Beth-nimrah, and therefore is no doubt the same place as BETH-ARAM (See BETH-ARAM) (q.v.), accurately Beth-haram (Joshua 13:27). The name is not found in the lists of the towns of Moab in Isaiah (Isaiah 15, 16), Jeremiah (Jeremiah 48), and Ezekiel (Ezekiel 25:9).
