RAMA - R>@ - kjv@Matthew:2:15) referring to kjv@Jeremiah:31:15) It is the Greek form of Ramah.

RAMAH - R>@ - (a hill). This is the name of several places in the holy land. One of the cities of the allotment of Benjamin. kjv@Joshua:18:25) Its site is at er
- Ram , about five miles from Jerusalem, and near to Gibeah. kjv@Judges:4:5 kjv@Judges:19:13; kjv@1Samuel:22:6) Its people returned after the captivity. kjv@Ezra:2:26; kjv@Nehemiah:7:30) The home of Elkanah, Samuel’s father, ( kjv@1Samuel:1:19 kjv@1Samuel:2:11) the birthplace of Samuel himself, his home and official residence, the site of his altar ch. ( kjv@1Samuel:7:17 kjv@1Samuel:8:4 kjv@1Samuel:15:34 ; 16:13; 19:18) and finally his burial-place, ch. ( kjv@1Samuel:25:1 kjv@1Samuel:28:3) It is a contracted form of Ramathaim-zophim. All that is directly said as to its situation is that it was in Mount Ephraim, ( kjv@1Samuel:1:1) a district without defined boundaries, The position of Ramah is a much-disputed question. Tradition, however places the residence of Samuel on the lofty and remarkable eminence of Neby Samwil which rises four miles to the northwest of Jerusalem. Since the days of Arcult the tradition appears to have been continuous. Here, then, we are inclined in the present state of the evidence, to place the Ramah of Samuel. One of the nineteen fortified places of Naphtali. kjv@Joshua:19:36) Dr. Robinson has discovered a Rameh northwest of the Sea of Galilee, about 8 miles east-south-east of Safed. One of the landmarks on the boundary of Asher, kjv@Joshua:19:29) apparently between Tyre and Zidon. Some place it 3 miles east of Tyre, others 10 miles off and east-southeast of the same city. By this name in ( kjv@2Kings:8:29) and kjv@2Chronicals:22:6 only, is designated Ramoth-gilead. A place mentioned in the catalogue of those reinhabited by the Benjamites after their return from the captivity. kjv@Nehemiah:11:33)

RAMATHLEHI - R>@ - (hill of the jawbone , or hill of Lehi), the name bestowed by Samson on the scene of his slaughter of the thousand Philistines with the jaw bone, kjv@Judges:15:17) a place by the rock Elam, in western Judah of the Philistines.

RAMATHMIZPEH - R>@ - (high place of the watch-tower). [RAMOTH

- GILEAD]

RAMATH OF THE SOUTH - R>@ - one of the towns at the extreme south limit of Simeon. kjv@Joshua:19:8) It is in all probability the same place as south Ramoth. ( kjv@1Samuel:30:27)

RAMATHAIMZOPHIM - R>@ - (the two heights of the watchers). RAMAH, 2

RAMATHITE, THE - R>@ - Shimei the Ramathite, i.e. a native of Ramah, had charge of the royal vineyards of King David. ( kjv@1Chronicles:27:27) (B.C. 1050.)

easton:

Rama @ kjv@Matthew:2:18), the Greek form of Ramah.

(1.) A city first mentioned in kjv@Joshua:18:25, near Gibeah of Benjamin. It was fortified by Baasha, king of Israel (kjvKings:15:17-22; kjv@2Chronicals:16:1-6). Asa, king of Judah, employed Benhadad the Syrian king to drive Baasha from this city (kjvKings:15:18-20). Isaiah (10:29) refers to it, and also Jeremiah, who was once a prisoner there among the other captives of Jerusalem when it was taken by Nebuchadnezzar kjv@Jeremiah:39:8-12 kjv@Jeremiah:40:1). Rachel, whose tomb lies close to Bethlehem, is represented as weeping in Ramah kjv@Jeremiah:31:15) for her slaughtered children. This prophecy is illustrated and fulfilled in the re-awakening of Rachel's grief at the slaughter of the infants in Bethlehem kjv@Matthew:2:18). It is identified with the modern village of er
- Ram, between Gibeon and Beeroth, about 5 miles due north of Jerusalem. (
See SAMUEL

(2.) A town identified with Rameh, on the border of Asher, about 13 miles south-east of Tyre, "on a solitary hill in the midst of a basin of green fields" kjv@Joshua:19:29).

(3.) One of the "fenced cities" of Naphtali kjv@Joshua:19:36), on a mountain slope, about seven and a half miles west-south-west of Safed, and 15 miles west of the north end of the Sea of Galilee, the present large and well-built village of Rameh.

(4.) The same as Ramathaim-zophim (q.v.), a town of Mount Ephraim ( kjv@1Samuel:1:1 kjv@1Samuel:1:19).

(5.) The same as Ramoth-gilead (q.v.), kjv@2Kings:8:29; kjv@2Chronicals:22:6.

Ramath of the south @ (Heb. Ramath-negeb). The Heb. negeb is the general designation for south or south-west of Judah. This was one of the towns of Simeon kjv@Joshua:19:8). It is the same as "south Ramoth" ( kjv@1Samuel:30:27; R.V., "Ramoth of the south"). Its site is doubtful. Some have thought it another name for Baalath-beer.

Ramath-lehi @ elevation of Lehi, or the jawbone height; i.e., the Ramah of Lehi kjv@Judges:15:15-17). The phrase "in the jaw," ver. 19, Authorized Version, is in the margin, also in the Revised Version, "in Lehi." Here Samson slew a thousand Philistines with a jawbone.

Ramath-mizpeh @ the height of Mizpeh or of the watch-tower kjv@Joshua:13:26), a place mentioned as one of the limits of Gad. There were two Mizpehs on the east of the Jordan. This was the Mizpeh where Jacob and Laban made a covenant, "Mizpeh of Gilead," called also Galeed and Jegar-sahadutha. It has been identified with the modern es
- Salt, where the roads from Jericho and from Shechem to Damascus unite, about 25 miles east of the Jordan and 13 south of the Jabbok.

Ramathaim-zophim @ the two heights of the Zophites or of the watchers (only in kjv@1Samuel:1:1), "in the land of Zuph" (9:5). Ramathaim is another name for Ramah

(4). One of the Levitical families descended from Kohath, that of Zuph or Zophai ( kjv@1Chronicles:6:26 kjv@1Chronicles:6:35), had a district assigned to them in Ephraim, which from this circumstance was called "the land of Zuph," and hence the name of the town, "Zophim." It was the birth-place of Samuel and the seat of his authority ( kjv@1Samuel:2:11 kjv@1Samuel:7:17). It is frequently mentioned in the history of that prophet and of David (15:34; 16:13; 19:18-23). Here Samuel died and was buried (25:1). This town has been identified with the modern Neby Samwil ("the prophet Samuel"), about 4 or 5 miles north-west of Jerusalem. But there is no certainty as to its precise locality. Some have supposed that it may be identical with Arimathea of the New Testament. (
See MIZPAH).

Ramathite @ the designation given to Shimei, the manager of David's vineyard ( kjv@1Chronicles:27:27).
