Βαθραία ), a name occurring in the genealogy of Judah as apparently the eldest of the three sons of Eshton, "men of Rechah" (1 Chronicles 4:12). B.C. post 1618. There is a Rapha in the line of Benjamin and elsewhere, but no apparent connection exists between those and this, nor has the name been identified as belonging to any place. (See REPHAIM).
