ARMENIA - A>@ - (land of Aram) is nowhere mentioned under that name in the original Hebrew, though it occurs in the English version, ( kjv@2Kings:19:37) for Ararat. Description.
Armenia is that lofty plateau whence the rivers Euphrates, Tigris, Araxes and Acampsis pour down their waters in different directions; the first two to the Persian Gulf, the last two respectively to the Caspian and Euxine seas. It may be termed the nucleus of the mountain system of western Asia. From the centre of the plateau rise two lofty chains of mountains, which run from east to west. Divisions.
Three districts are mentioned in the Bible.

(1) ARARAT is mentioned as the place whither the sons of Sennacherib fled. kjv@Isaiah:37:38) It was the central district, surrounding the mountain of that name.

(2) MINNI only occurs in kjv@Jeremiah:51:27) It is probably identical with the district Minyas, in the upper valley of the Murad-su branch of the Euphrates.

(3) TOGARMAH is noticed in two passages of kjv@Ezekiel:27:14 kjv@Ezekiel:38:6) both of which are in favor of its identity with Armenia. Present condition.
The Armenians, numbering about two millions, are nominally Christians. About half of them live in Armenia. Their favorite pursuit is commerce. The country is divided, as to government, between Russia, Turkey and Persia.

Armenia @ high land, occurs only in Authorized Version, kjv@2Kings:19:37; in Revised Version, "Ararat," which is the Hebrew word. A country in western Asia lying between the Caspian and the Black Sea. Here the ark of Noah rested after the Deluge kjv@Genesis:8:4). It is for the most part high table-land, and is watered by the Aras, the Kur, the Euphrates, and the Tigris. Ararat was properly the name of a part of ancient Armenia. Three provinces of Armenia are mentioned in kjv@Jeremiah:51:27, Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz. Some, however, think Minni a contraction for Armenia. (
