Ramoth-Gilead:
heights of Gilead, a city of refuge on the east of Jordan; called "Ramoth in Gilead" (Deu 4:43; Jos 20:8; 21:38). Here Ahab, who joined Jehoshaphat in an endeavour to rescue it from the hands of the king of Syria, was mortally wounded (1Ki 22:1-36). A similar attempt was afterwards made by Ahaziah and Joram, when the latter was wounded (2Ki 8:28). In this city Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, was anointed by one of the sons of the prophets (9:1,4).
It has with probability been identified with Reimun, on the northern slope of the Jabbok, about 5 miles west of Jerash or Gerasa, one of the cities of Decapolis. Others identify it with Gerosh, about 25 miles north-east of es-Salt, with which also many have identified it. (See RAMATH-MIZPEH.)
