Strong's Lexicon Beth Choglah: Beth Hoglah Original Word: בֵּית חָגְלָה Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: בֵּית (beth, meaning "house") and חָגְלָה (choglah, meaning "partridge" or "circle"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for Beth Choglah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to a Hebrew location. Usage: Beth Choglah, or Beth Hoglah, is a place name in the Hebrew Bible. It is often translated as "house of the partridge" or "house of the circle." The name suggests a location that may have been known for its circular shape or for being a habitat for partridges. Cultural and Historical Background: Beth Choglah is mentioned as a landmark in the territorial boundaries of the tribe of Benjamin. It is located near the Jordan River and the Dead Sea, in the region that was allocated to the tribe of Benjamin after the Israelites entered the Promised Land. The area was significant for its strategic location and its proximity to other important biblical sites.
