BEIT LACHEM > BETHLEHEM / BAYTI LAḥMIN
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Hebrew “beit lachem > bethlehem,” Arabic “bayti laḥmin,” meaning “house of bread.” Bethlehem is a Palestinian city located in the central West Bank, neighboring south Jerusalem. A historical reference to the town appears in the Amarna letters (~1400 BC) when the king of Jerusalem appeals to his overlord, the king of Egypt, for help in retaking “Bit-Lahmi” in the wake of disturbances by the Apiru. It is thought that the similarity of this name to its modern forms indicates that this was a settlement of Canaanites who shared a Semitic cultural and linguistic heritage with the later arrivals.
