Baal-Tamar:

lord of palm trees, a place in the tribe of Benjamin near Gibeah of Saul (Jdg 20:33). It was one of the sanctuaries or groves of Baal. Probably the palm tree of Deborah (Jdg 4:5) is alluded to in the name.

Baal-Tamar:

master of the palm-tree

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Baal-Tamar:

ba-al-ta'-mar ba‘al tamar; Baal Thamar, ("Baal of the palm tree"): Evidently a seat of heathen worship (Jud 20:33) between Bethel and Gibeah (compare Jud 20:18,31). The place was known to Eusebius (Onomasticon, which see), but trace of the name is now lost. Conder suggests that it may be connected with the palm tree of Deborah (Jud 4:5) which was between Bethel and Ramah (HDB, under the word).
