TOMBEAU D'ABSALOM

This entry is not yet translated: it is shown in French.

Un tombeau haut de vingt pieds et mesurant vingt-quatre pieds de côté, que la tradition tardive désigne comme le lieu de repos d'Absalom. Il est situé dans la partie orientale de la vallée du Cédron, à l'est de Jérusalem. Selon toute probabilité, c'est le tombeau d'Alexandre Jannée (Conder, dans Hastings' "Dict. Bible," article "Jerusalem," p. 597). Il existait aux jours de Josephus ("Ant." vii. 10, § 3). Voir les illustrations aux pp. 133, 134.
