Beth-phage

House of the unripe fig, a village on the Mount of Olives, on the road from Jerusalem to Jericho (Mt. 21:1; Mk. 11:1; Lk. 19:29), and very close to Bethany. It was the limit of a Sabbath-day's journey from Jerusalem, i.e., 2, 000 cubits. It has been identified with the modern Kefr-et-Tur.
