The Story of Patriarchs and Prophets
by Ellen G. White
Appendix
NOTE 9. PAGE 608. Concerning the identity of the Ramah of Samuel
with the Ramah of Benjamin, Dr. Edersheim says: "These two
points seem established: Saul's residence was at Gibeah, and he first
met Samuel in Ramah. But if so, it seems impossible, in view of 1 Samuel
10:2, to identify the Ramah of Samuel with the Ramah of Benjamin,
or to regard it as the modern Neby Samuel, four miles northwest
of Jerusalem."
