Arumah
(Heb. Arumah’, , prob. for Rumah, with prosthetic; Sept. ), a city apparently near Shechem, in which Abimelech the son of Gideon resided (Jdg 9:41). It has been conjectured that the word in Jdg 9:31, , rendered “privily,” and in the margin ” at Tormah,” may signify ” at Arumah” by changing the to an . It seems to be confounded with Rumah (2Ki 23:36) by Euseb. and Jerome, who state (Onomast. s.v. Ruma) that it (, ‘Arima) was then called Remphis or Arimathceal The suggestion of Van de Velde (Memoir, p. 288) appears to be correct that it is represented by the modern ruin ElOrmah, on the brow of a mountain S.E. of Shechem.
Arumah.
The site proposed for this place by Van de Velde (Memoir, p. 288), and adopted by Tristram (Bible Places, p.’192), is laid down as El-Ormeh on the Ordnance Map, six and three fourth miles south-east of Nablfs, as a square ruin on the western edge of a tongue or spur projecting southwards from the general range of hills (2700 feet above the sea), with two or three old cisterns just to the north, and some other remains of a circular form a little to the east. A spring called Ain Aulam or Aulun lies half a ‘mile to the west, just across the valley.
