beth
A proper place name referring to a settlement likely meaning 'Ataroth (Crowns) of the house (descendants, clan) of Joab,' denoting a specific locality allotted to the clan or household of an individual named Joab—probably of southeastern Benjamin or western Gad. The term combines Ataroth (likely 'crowns' or perhaps 'wreaths'), beth ('house, lineage, place'), and the personal name Joab. Functions as a territorial designation in biblical texts, marking clan affiliation and inherited land.
