BITHRON (2Sa_2:29 the gorge, probably not a proper name).A ravine leading to Mahanaim.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
Properly "the Bithron," i.e. "divided place"; "all the B." a district in the Arabah or Jordan valley E. of the river (2Sa_2:29). The whole country in the Ghor on the other side of the river is broken and intersected. (See BETHER.)
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.
Bith'ron. More accurately, The Bithron. (a craggy gorge or ravine). A place, doubtless a district, in the Jordan valley, on the east side of the river. 2Sa_2:29.
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863
bith?ron (הבּתרון, ha-bithrōn; ὅλην τὴν παρατείνουσαν, hólēn tḗn parateı́nousan, literally ?the entire (land) extending?; 2Sa_2:29, ?the Bithron,? i.e. the gorge or groove): Does not seem to be a proper name; rather it indicates the gorge by which Abner approached Mahanaim. Buhl (GAP, 121) favors identification with Wādy ‛Ajlūn, along which in later times a Rom road connected ‛Ajlūn and Mahanaim. Others (Guthe, Kurz. bib. W?rterbuch, under the word) incline to Wādy esh Sha‛ı̄b.

Bith?ron (2Sa_2:29). This name has the same meaning as Bether. It probably denotes a region of hills and valleys, and not any definite place.

Bithron
(more accurately "the Bithron," Heb. hab-Bithron', הִבַּתְרוֹן, the broken or dividedplace, from בָּתִר), to cut up; Sept. ἡ παρατείνουσα; Vulg. Bethboron), a place-from the form of the expression, " all the Bithron," doubtless a district-in the Arabah or Jordan valley, on the east side of the river (2Sa_2:29). The spot at which Abner's party crossed the Jordan not being specified, we cannot fix the position of the Bithron, which lay between that ford and Mahanaim. So far as we know, the whole of the country in the Ghor, on the other side of the river, is of the broken and intersected character indicated by the derivation of the, name. It appears, therefore, to be the designation of that region in general rather than of any specific locality. SEE BETHER.
