Baalath:

a town of the tribe of Dan (Jos 19:44). It was fortified by Solomon (1Ki 9:18; 2Ch 8:6). Some have identified it with Bel'ain, in Wady Deir Balut.

Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary

Baalath:

a rejoicing; our proud lord

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Baalath:

ba'-a-lath ba‘alath; (A, Baalon): between Shikkeron (Ekron) and Jabnoel unless, as seems probable, the suggestion of M. Clermont-Ganneau (Rev. Crit, 1897, 902) is correct that for har ( =" mount"), we should read nahar ("river"). In this case the border in question would be the Nahr rubin. Here there is an annual feast held-attended by all classes and famous all over Syria-which appears to be a real survival of "Baal worship."

(1) A town on the border of Da (Jos 19:44) associated with Eltekeh and Gibbethon-possibly Bela‘in.

(2) ("Mistress-ship"): A store city of Solomon, mentioned with Beth-horon (1Ki 9:18; 2Ch 8:6) and possibly the same as (1).

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Baalath:

SEE [BAAL, 5.3.], [BAAL, 5.4.].
