. . -Name of several plaoes in the Bible. The

Septuagint transcribes Katipi, Hoirffir^, Hafm^r; Vulg.: Afaspka and Masphath {once Mtuphe, Mam- pha, Mesphe); Hebrew: Alifpeh and Mi^paA; the latter almost invariably in pause. The word, with many other proper names, is derived from \/^PH = watch, observe, and means "watch-tower" {spwtijum, ffnvJa), which sense it bears twice in the Bible (Is., xii, 8; II Par., XK, 24^. Joaephus interprets by rare- wTiv^rBior (Antt.VI,ii, I). It tsthus a natural name for a town in a commanding position (ef. the Crusad- ing Belvoir, and el-Mi^hr(feh (Palmer, Desert of the Exodus, II, 513). Like the latter it almost invariably has the article.

'This heap (Kal) shall be a witness ('M) between me and thee this dav, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad (gal'ed) and Mf^^pah (so R. V.with Hebrew) for he said 'The I^ord watch (ye^et VpFH) between me and thee when we are absent one from an- another'" (Gen. XXXI, 45 ff.). Here the Vulgate omits Adm-Mffpo*. ^^ Septuagint translates * ifitra, Targtims of OnkeloaandSiire, SekOthA, i. e. view. The
