(Βετάνη v. r. Βλιτάνη , i.e. prob. Βαιτάνη; Vulg. omits), a place apparently south of Jerusalem (Judith 1:9), and, according to Reland (Palaest. p. 625), identical with the AIN (See AIN) (q.v.) of Joshua 21:16, and the Bethanin (Βηθανίν ) of Eusebius (Onom. Ἀρί, Ain), two miles from the Terebinth of Abraham and four from Hebron. Others, with less probability, compare it with BETEN (See BETEN) (q.v.). (See CHELLUS).
