The location of Baal-tamar is unknown (Judges 20:33), but Marreh-geba was evidently Geba, which stood a few miles northeast of Gibeah. Rimmon (pomegranate, Judges 20:45) was farther to the north and east of Bethel. The site of Gidom is still unknown. The writer carefully recorded that it was the Lord who struck Benjamin (Judges 20:35).
