Bethphage

Kitto's Popular Cyclopedia of Biblical Literature

Bethpha´ge (house of figs)—comp. Song of Solomon 2:13), a small village, which our Lord, coming from Jericho, appears to have entered before reaching Bethany (Matthew 21:1; Luke 19:29); it probably, therefore, lay near the latter place, a little below it to the east. No trace of it now exists.
