Ramah<\/em>, not the Ramah of Samuel or Ramathaim<\/em>. In Isa 10:28-32<\/span>, the king of Assyria is described as crossing the ravine at Michmash, and successively dislodging or alarming Geba<\/em>, Ramah, and Gibeah of Saul<\/em>. This Ramah is the modern er-Rm<\/em>, a wretched village on an elevation. It was the place where Jeremiah was set free (Jer 31:15<\/span>; Jer 40:1<\/span>). It was inhabited again after the exile (Ez. 2:26; Neh 7:30<\/span>). 3. Beeroth, el-Bireh<\/em>, mentioned above, Jos 9:17<\/span>, where see note. It belonged to or was in alliance with Gibeon. It was the home of ( a<\/em>) the murderers of Ishbosheth (2Sa 4:2<\/span>), and ( b<\/em>) of Joab’s armour-bearer (2Sa 23:37<\/span>).<\/p>\n Verse 25<\/span>. Gibeon<\/B><\/I>] See before, Jos 10:1-14<\/span>. This place is famous for the confederacy of the five kings against Israel, and their miraculous defeat. Ramah<\/I>, a place about six or eight miles north of Jerusalem. Beeroth<\/I>, i.e., wells<\/I>; one of the four cities which belonged to the Gibeonites, who made peace with the Israelites by stratagem. See Jos 9:3-15<\/span>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Zemaraim; <\/B>which either gave name to, or took name from, that mountain, 2Ch 13:4<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n Gibeon<\/strong>,…. Gibeon is the place from whence the Gibeonites came, who deceived Joshua, Jos 9:3<\/span>. Jerom says p, in his time there was a village shown of this name, four miles from Bethel to the east, near Ramah, next mentioned;<\/p>\n and Ramah<\/strong>, which Jerom relates q was six miles from Aelia or Jerusalem to the north, against Bethel. Rauwolff, a traveller in those parts, says r, that the town of Rama is situated on an ascent, in plain fields, which extend themselves for two leagues to the hill of the city of Jerusalem; these fields are very fruitful and well tilled, and sown with corn, cotton, and Indian millet; the town is pretty large, but very open, like unto a village, very pitifully built, where one may still see here and there some signs of old buildings;<\/p>\n and Beeroth<\/strong> was a city that belonged to the Gibeonites, Jos 9:17<\/span>; and Jerom says s, in his time was shown the village, seven miles from Aelia or Jerusalem, as you go to Neapolis or Shechem.<\/p>\n p De loc.

It is to be found in the modern er-Ram, six miles north of Jerusalem. It stands on the top of a conical hill, half a mile east of the great northern road from Jerusalem. Broken columns are found in the vicinity, and many large hewn stones, remains of the ancient city, are still to be seen in the walls and foundations of the modern houses. <\/p>\n Beeroth <\/strong> See Jos 9:17<\/span>.] <\/p>\n Gibeon: Jos 9:17, Jos 10:2, 1Ki 3:4, 1Ki 3:5, 1Ki 9:2, Isa 28:21 <\/p>\n Ramah: Situated, according to Eusebius, six miles from Jerusalem towards Bethel; though Jerome places it near Gaba, seven miles from Jerusalem. 1Sa 1:1, Ramathaim-zophim, Jos 7:17, Jos 15:34, Jer 31:15, Mat 27:57, Arimathea <\/p>\n Beeroth: Eusebius says Beeroth was seven miles from Jerusalem, towards Nicopolis or Emmaus. Jerome, however, reads Neapolis or Shechem; but Reland prefers the former. <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Jos 21:17 – Gibeon Jdg 4:5 – between Jdg 19:13 – Gibeah 2Sa 2:12 – Gibeon 2Sa 4:2 – Beeroth 2Sa 20:14 – Berites 1Ki 15:17 – Ramah Ezr 2:26 – Ramah Neh 7:29 – Kirjathjearim Neh 7:30 – Ramah Neh 11:33 – Ramah Isa 10:29 – Ramah Jer 40:1 – Ramah<\/p>\n Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth, 25.
