Betanija onkraj Jordana

Opis

"Betanija onkraj Jordana" [Jn 1:28 ]; različica King James Bethabara; Bethabara, branje v nasprotju z večino rokopisov, podprto z Origenom na geografskih temeljih): Tak kraj ni znan. Grove je predlagal, da je mišljeno mesto BETH-NIMRAH (glej), sodobni Tell nimrin, izjemno primerno mesto, vendar ga je težko povezati z [Jn 1:28 ]; primerjaj [Jn 2:1 ]. Tradicionalno mesto je prehod vzhodno od Jerihe.

Bethabara

house of the ford, a place on the east bank of the Jordan, where John was baptizing (John 1:28). It may be identical with Bethbarah, the ancient ford of Jordan of which the men of Ephraim took possession (Judg 7:24). The Revised Version reads "Bethany beyond Jordan." It was the great ford, and still bears the name of "the ford," Makhadhet 'Abarah, "the ford of crossing over," about 25 miles from Nazareth. (See BETH-BARAH)
