NADABATH

(Gk. Nadabath)

A village in Transjordan. A wedding party traveling from Nadabath to Madaba was ambushed by Jonathan and Simon Maccabeus to avenge the death of their brother John, who was captured and executed by the Jambrites of Madaba (1 Macc. 9:37). This village might be the same as one mentioned by Josephus (Ant. 3.1.4). Suggestions for its location include Main (219120), 7 km. (4 mi.) SW of Madeba; en-Nebâ (ancient Nebo) NW of Madeba; and Khirbet et-Teim (223123), 2 km. (1.25 miles) S of Madeba.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
