Deir Al Arba'een (original) (raw)
Deir Al Arba'een (Arabic: دير الأربعين, lit. 'Sanctuary of the Forty'), also Masha'ad Al Arba'een, is a ruined building approximately 300 meters to the West of the Old City of Hebron. It is considered the most notable ancient structure on Tel Rumeida. It was described by the PEF Survey of Palestine in 1874 and by Andreas Evaristus Mader in 1911–14. A corner of the building contains what is thought to be the Tomb of Jesse and Ruth.
