ARBATTA

(Gk. Arbátta)

A region whose Jewish inhabitants Simon Maccabeus led safely to Jerusalem after defeating the Syrian troops in Galilee (1 Macc. 5:23). Josephus calls the place the toparchy of Narbata, which was a retreat for the Jews of Caesarea during the Jewish War of 66-70 c.e. (BJ 2.14.5; 18.10). It is located ca. 16 km. (10 mi.) S of Mt. Carmel, W of Samaria.

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.
