bā´a-lath-bē´ẽr בּעלת בּ×ר, ba‛alath be'eÌ„r “lady (mistress) of the wellâ€; (in , Baal)): In Josh this place is designated “Ramah of the South,†i.e. of the Negeb, while in it is described as Ramoth of the Negeb. It must have been a prominent hill (raÌ„maÌ„h = “heightâ€) in the far south of the Negeb and near a well (be'eÌ„r). The site is unknown though Conder suggests that the shrine Kubbet el Baul may retain the old name.
