Arimathea


"A "city of the Jews" (Luke 23:51), the birth-place of Joseph in" "whose sepulchre our Lord was laid (Matt. 27:57, 60; John 19:38)." "It is probably the same place as Ramathaim in Ephraim, and the" "birth-place of Samuel (1 Sam. 1:1, 19). Others identify it with" "Ramleh in Dan, or Rama (q.v.) in Benjamin (Matt. 2:18)."
