The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia Online Previous: GITTAH-HEPHER Next: GITTITES GITTAIMgit'-a-im (gittayim): The town to which the Beerothites tied, and where they lived as gerim, or protected strangers (2 Samuel 4:3). The place need not have been beyond the boundaries of Benjamin, so it may be identical with Gittaim of Nehemiah 11:33, which was occupied by Benjamites after the exile. It is named with Hazor and Ramah; but so far the site has not been discovered.
