References

  1. Not to be confused with the second Bethany mentioned in the New Testament. This was located about 15 stadia (just under 2.8 km) southeast of what was then Jerusalem on the eastern slope of the [[w:Mount of Olives|]]. According to LUTTemplate:Bibleverse with invalid book, it was the home of the three siblings Mary, Martha and Lazarus and it was here that the raising of Lazarus took place.
  2. The lowest point of the solid earth at 420 m below sea level is where the Jordan flows into the Dead Sea. The [[w:Jordan Rift Valley|]] is part of the [[w:Great African Rift Valley|]], which is the "deepest and most conspicuous scrape on the face of the Earth."
