 Ramath-mizpeh
    the height of Mizpeh or of the watch-tower (Josh. 13:26), a
    place mentioned as one of the limits of Gad. There were two
    Mizpehs on the east of the Jordan. This was the Mizpeh where
    Jacob and Laban made a covenant, "Mizpeh of Gilead," called also
    Galeed and Jegar-sahadutha. It has been identified with the
    modern es-Salt, where the roads from Jericho and from Shechem to
    Damascus unite, about 25 miles east of the Jordan and 13 south
    of the Jabbok.
