(anc. geog.), a village in the mount of Olives, whither Jesus Christ sometimes retreated in the night-time. It was in a garden belonging to this village that he suffered the agony in which he sweated drops of blood; and here he was arrested by Judas and the rest who were conducted by this traitor. The place is by Maundrel described as an even plot of ground, not above 57 yards square, lying between the foot of Mount Olivet and the brook Cedron.
