221. Bethagla. Joshua 15:6; K. 48:18; L. 248:91.
Part of the beginning of this entry is missing in the Vatican manuscript. This is not to be confused with Bēthagla (K. 8:19) in the Jordan valley.
One site which the Onomasticon equates with Bēthagla is the village Agla. It is 10 miles from Eleutheropolis (K. 18:12) probably at Kh 'Ajian . Text notes turn off from main Roman road.
The second site closer to Gaza (K. 62:22) called Bethagla is probably Tell el 'Ajjul , considered by some to be old Gaza (K. 63:23) but probably Eusebius is wrong in both instances for the Old Testament site. This is one of the few entries where the Latin uses "milestone."
The Madaba map has a Bēthagidea which could have confused a Delta for a Lambda and seems to fit Tell el 'Ajjul south of Gaza.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Bethaglan, house of their festivities" (91).
222. Bētharaba. Joshua 15:6; K 48:21; L. n/a; Lacuna in Greek Text.

223. Baal. Joshua 15:9; K. 48:22; L. 248:94.

224. Baala. Joshua 15:11; K. 48:25; L. 248:97.
The alternative is not in the Latin text but occurs in some manuscript variants.
Simple tribal listing.
In Interpretation of Hebrew Names "Baala, it or above" (91).
225. Balōth. Joshua 15:24; K. 48:26; L. 248:98.
