Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And Bethnimrah, and Bethharan, fenced cities,.... The first of these is the same with Nimrah, Num 32:3 , and the other is the same with Betharam, Jos 13:27 , it
is called in the Jerusalem Talmud (r), Bethramtha, and so by the Syrians, Bethramphta; and to the same place Herod gave the name of Livias or Julias (s): these cities the children of Gad built or repaired for their families: and folds for sheep; they also built for their cattle, as they promised to do, and Moses enjoined them, Num 32:16 . (r) Sheviith, fol. 38. 4. (s) Vid. Reland. Palestin. Illustrat. par. 2. p. 643.
