Ether (2)

Ether is identified by lieutenant Conder (Tent Work in Palestine, 2:336). with a ruined site, el-Atr, one mile north-west of Beit-Jibrin; but it is doubtful if the territory of Simeon extended so far north. Van de Velde's Tell Athan, "a little to the northeast of Beersheba," which is adopted by Tristram (Bible Places, page 42), does not appear on the Ordinance Map.
