Antipa'tris or Antip'atris. (for his father). A town to which the soldiers conveyed St. Paul by night on their march. Acts 23:31. Its ancient name was Capharsaba; and Herod, when he rebuilt the city, changed it to Antipatris, in honor of his father, Antipater. The village Kefr-Sabba still retains the ancient name of Antipatris.
