berit bin
'berit bin' is a phrase that appears in the context of the story of Abraham. The words berit and bin are plain enough, and mean “contract” and “knowledge” respectively.
In Genesis chapter 17:2 Ihoh arrives to make a contract with Abraham, which he calls a “contract of knowledge”. It is unclear how this contract relates to the previous agreement Ihoh made with Abraham back in chapter 12.
A few short verses later, in Genesis 17:7 the Alehim confront Abraham about this “contract of knowledge”
