II Samuel 23:14

And David was then in a hold: and there was a garrison of the Philistines then in Bethlehem.

Garrison. Literally, "station," (Haydock) or advanced guard. --- In. The b is omitted in Hebrew, as on many other occasions; (4 Kings 14:14.; Kennicott) owing perhaps to the following words beginning with the same letter. (Haydock)
