Subjects in this Topic:

git´ā̇-im (גּתּים, gittayim): The town to which the Beerothites tied, and where they lived as gērı̄m, or protected strangers (). The place need not have been beyond the boundaries of Benjamin, so it may be identical with Gittaim of , which was occupied by Benjamites after the exile. It is named with Hazor and Ramah; but so far the site has not been discovered.
