Betah was a city of Hadadezer from which David took much bronze, corresponding to Tibhath in Chronicles. It is important because it preserves a variant name within David's northern victories. First appears in 2 Sam 8:8.1
AI summary: Betah matters because royal conquest traditions are often preserved under alternate place forms across Samuel and Chronicles. The site belongs to the accumulation of resources through David's campaigns.1
Confidence, a city belonging to Hadadezer, king of Zobah, which yielded much spoil of brass to David (2 Sam. 8:8). In 1 Chr. 18:8 it is called Tibhath. 3
