Bethaven:
(house of nothingness, i.e. of idols) a place on the mountains of Benjamin, east of Bethel (Joshua 7:2; 18:12) and lying between that place and Michmash (1 Samuel 13:5; 14:28). In Hosea 4:15; 5:8; 10:5, the name is transferred to the neighboring Bethel,-once the "house of God" but then the house of idols of "naught."
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
