Beth-haccerem
|
Beth-haccerem - "house of a vineyard" - a place in the tribe of Judah. (Neh. 3:14) It is probable that this place is identical with 'Ain Karim, or "well of the vineyards," near which there is a ridge on which are cairns which may have served as beacons of old, one of which is 40 feet high and 130 in diameter. Here people heard the trumpet against the invading army of Babylon. (Jer. 6:1)
