From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Battlement       a parapet wall or balustrade surrounding the flat roofs of the       houses, required to be built by a special law (Deut. 22:8). In       Jer. 5:10, it denotes the parapet of a city wall.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Bdellium       occurs only in Gen. 2:12, where it designates a product of the       land of Havilah; and in Num. 11:7, where the manna is likened to       it in colour. It was probably an aromatic gum like balsam which       exuded from a particular tree (Borassus flabelliformis) still       found in Arabia, Media, and India. It bears a resemblance in       colour to myrrh. Others think the word denotes "pearls," or some       precious stone.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Bethlehem       house of bread. (1.) A city in the "hill country" of Judah. It       was originally called Ephrath (Gen. 35:16, 19; 48:7; Ruth 4:11).       It was also called Beth-lehem Ephratah (Micah 5:2),       Beth-lehem-judah (1 Sam. 17:12), and "the city of David" (Luke       2:4). It is first noticed in Scripture as the place where Rachel       died and was buried "by the wayside," directly to the north of       the city (Gen. 48:7). The valley to the east was the scene of       the story of Ruth the Moabitess. There are the fields in which       she gleaned, and the path by which she and Naomi returned to the       town. Here was David's birth-place, and here also, in after       years, he was anointed as king by Samuel (1 Sam. 16:4-13); and       it was from the well of Bethlehem that three of his heroes       brought water for him at the risk of their lives when he was in       the cave of Adullam (2 Sam. 23:13-17). But it was distinguished       above every other city as the birth-place of "Him whose goings       forth have been of old" (Matt. 2:6; comp. Micah 5:2). Afterwards       Herod, "when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men," sent       and slew "all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all       the coasts thereof, from two years old and under" (Matt. 2:16,       18; Jer. 31:15).                Bethlehem bears the modern name of Beit-Lahm, i.e., "house of       flesh." It is about 5 miles south of Jerusalem, standing at an       elevation of about 2,550 feet above the sea, thus 100 feet       higher than Jerusalem.                There is a church still existing, built by Constantine the       Great (A.D. 330), called the "Church of the Nativity," over a       grotto or cave called the "holy crypt," and said to be the       "stable" in which Jesus was born. This is perhaps the oldest       existing Christian church in the world. Close to it is another       grotto, where Jerome the Latin father is said to have spent       thirty years of his life in translating the Scriptures into       Latin. (See {VERSION}.)                (2.) A city of Zebulun, mentioned only in Josh. 19:15. Now       Beit-Lahm, a ruined village about 6 miles west-north-west of       Nazareth.
