Bible Question:
On a modern day map of Israel, what is now located where Bethel was located on an ancient map of the middle east? Is the area still called Bethel? Is it populated today? Chusarcik |
Bible Answer: The area of Bethel is near Ramalah, NW of Jericho, along the top of the Judean hills. The Arabic name is Beitin. Some recent investigations suspect that El-Bireh fits the location clues in the Bible better. This seems to be well argued greentwiga |
