BDB867 [H871]

אֲתָרִים proper name, of a location only Num 21:1 ׳דֶּרֶח הָא; so ᵐ5, perhaps (Di) name of a caravan-route, compare vestige, footprint; others (after ᵑ7 ᵑ6) translate way of the spies (compare Num 13:22); but הָאֲתָרִים for הַתָּרִים is highly improbable, and a locality would hardly receive its designation from the spies.
