Vitanija
Опис
Selo na jugoistočnoj padini Maslinske gore ([Mk 11:1 ]), oko 2 milje istočno od Jerusalima, na putu ka Jerihonu. Ime je dobilo po broju palmi koje su tamo rasle. To je bilo prebivalište Lazara i njegovih sestara. Često se pominje u vezi sa značajnim događajima u životu našeg Gospoda ([Mt 21:17 ; Mt 26:6 ; Mk 11:11 ; Mk 11:12 ; Mk 14:3 ; Lk 24:50 ; Jov 11:1 ; Jov 12:1 ]). Sada je poznato pod imenom el-Azarijeh, tj. "mesto Lazara," ili jednostavno Lazariyeh.

Bethany
house of dates.
(1.) The Revised Version in (John 1:28) has this word instead of Bethabara, on the authority of the oldest manuscripts. It appears to have been the name of a place on the east of Jordan.
(2.) A village on the south-eastern slope of the Mount of Olives (Mark 11:1), about 2 miles east of Jerusalem, on the road to Jericho. It derived its name from the number of palm-trees which grew there. It was the residence of Lazarus and his sisters. It is frequently mentioned in connection with memorable incidents in the life of our Lord (Matt 21:17; 26:6; Mark 11:11; 11:12; 14:3; Luke 24:50; John 11:1; 12:1). It is now known by the name of el-Azariyeh, i.e., "place of Lazarus," or simply Lazariyeh. Seen from a distance, the village has been described as "remarkably beautiful, the perfection of retirement and repose, of seclusion and lovely peace." Now a mean village, containing about twenty families.
