Berea

From Jewish Encyclopedia (1906)

Berea:

By: Morris Jastrow, Jr. , Gerson B. Levi

Place where Bacchides encamped (I Macc. ix. 4). From the context it would seem to be near Jerusalem, though some scholars have identified it on unsatisfactory evidence with Beeroth (Josh. ix. 17; I Esd. v. 19).

J. Jr. G. B. L.
