Be′ther. The Mountains of Bether are only mentioned in Song of Solomon 2:17; Song of Solomon 8:14; and no place called Bether occurs elsewhere. The word means, properly, dissection. The mountains of Bether may therefore be mountains of disjunction, of separation, etc., that is, mountains cut up, divided by ravines, etc.
