Er Ram (Ramah)

 

Er Ram (Ramah) is the birthplace of Samuel and an important stop on his judicial and priestly Circuit.


1 Samuel 1

19 They rose early in the morning and worshiped before the Lord; then they went back to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the Lord remembered her; 20 and in due time Hannah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Samuel, for she said, “I have asked him of the Lord.”
