   Mara
      bitter; sad, a symbolical name which Naomi gave to herself
      because of her misfortunes (Ruth 1:20).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Marah
      bitterness, a fountain at the sixth station of the Israelites
      (Ex. 15:23, 24; Num. 33:8) whose waters were so bitter that they
      could not drink them. On this account they murmured against
      Moses, who, under divine direction, cast into the fountain "a
      certain tree" which took away its bitterness, so that the people
      drank of it. This was probably the 'Ain Hawarah, where there are
      still several springs of water that are very "bitter," distant
      some 47 miles from 'Ayun Mousa.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Mary
      Hebrew Miriam. (1.) The wife of Joseph, the mother of Jesus,
      called the "Virgin Mary," though never so designated in
      Scripture (Matt. 2:11; Acts 1:14). Little is known of her
      personal history. Her genealogy is given in Luke 3. She was of
      the tribe of Judah and the lineage of David (Ps. 132:11; Luke
      1:32). She was connected by marriage with Elisabeth, who was of
      the lineage of Aaron (Luke 1:36).
     
         While she resided at Nazareth with her parents, before she
      became the wife of Joseph, the angel Gabriel announced to her
      that she was to be the mother of the promised Messiah (Luke
      1:35). After this she went to visit her cousin Elisabeth, who
      was living with her husband Zacharias (probably at Juttah, Josh.
      15:55; 21:16, in the neighbourhood of Maon), at a considerable
      distance, about 100 miles, from Nazareth. Immediately on
      entering the house she was saluted by Elisabeth as the mother of
      her Lord, and then forthwith gave utterance to her hymn of
      thanksgiving (Luke 1:46-56; comp. 1 Sam. 2:1-10). After three
      months Mary returned to Nazareth to her own home. Joseph was
      supernaturally made aware (Matt. 1:18-25) of her condition, and
      took her to his own home. Soon after this the decree of Augustus
      (Luke 2:1) required that they should proceed to Bethlehem (Micah
      5:2), some 80 or 90 miles from Nazareth; and while they were
      there they found shelter in the inn or khan provided for
      strangers (Luke 2:6, 7). But as the inn was crowded, Mary had to
      retire to a place among the cattle, and there she brought forth
      her son, who was called Jesus (Matt. 1:21), because he was to
      save his people from their sins. This was followed by the
      presentation in the temple, the flight into Egypt, and their
      return in the following year and residence at Nazareth (Matt.
      2). There for thirty years Mary, the wife of Joseph the
      carpenter, resides, filling her own humble sphere, and pondering
      over the strange things that had happened to her. During these
      years only one event in the history of Jesus is recorded, viz.,
      his going up to Jerusalem when twelve years of age, and his
      being found among the doctors in the temple (Luke 2:41-52).
      Probably also during this period Joseph died, for he is not
      again mentioned.
     
         After the commencement of our Lord's public ministry little
      notice is taken of Mary. She was present at the marriage in
      Cana. A year and a half after this we find her at Capernaum
      (Matt. 12:46, 48, 49), where Christ uttered the memorable words,
      "Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched
      forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother
      and my brethren!" The next time we find her is at the cross
      along with her sister Mary, and Mary Magdalene, and Salome, and
      other women (John 19:26). From that hour John took her to his
      own abode. She was with the little company in the upper room
      after the Ascension (Acts 1:14). From this time she wholly
      disappears from public notice. The time and manner of her death
      are unknown.
     
         (2.) Mary Magdalene, i.e., Mary of Magdala, a town on the
      western shore of the Lake of Tiberias. She is for the first time
      noticed in Luke 8:3 as one of the women who "ministered to
      Christ of their substance." Their motive was that of gratitude
      for deliverances he had wrought for them. Out of Mary were cast
      seven demons. Gratitude to her great Deliverer prompted her to
      become his follower. These women accompanied him also on his
      last journey to Jerusalem (Matt. 27:55; Mark 15:41; Luke 23:55).
      They stood near the cross. There Mary remained till all was
      over, and the body was taken down and laid in Joseph's tomb.
      Again, in the earliest dawn of the first day of the week she,
      with Salome and Mary the mother of James (Matt. 28:1; Mark
      16:2), came to the sepulchre, bringing with them sweet spices,
      that they might anoint the body of Jesus. They found the
      sepulchre empty, but saw the "vision of angels" (Matt. 28:5).
      She hastens to tell Peter and John, who were probably living
      together at this time (John 20:1, 2), and again immediately
      returns to the sepulchre. There she lingers thoughtfully,
      weeping at the door of the tomb. The risen Lord appears to her,
      but at first she knows him not. His utterance of her name "Mary"
      recalls her to consciousness, and she utters the joyful,
      reverent cry, "Rabboni." She would fain cling to him, but he
      forbids her, saying, "Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to
      my Father." This is the last record regarding Mary of Magdala,
      who now returned to Jerusalem. The idea that this Mary was "the
      woman who was a sinner," or that she was unchaste, is altogether
      groundless.
     
         (3.) Mary the sister of Lazarus is brought to our notice in
      connection with the visits of our Lord to Bethany. She is
      contrasted with her sister Martha, who was "cumbered about many
      things" while Jesus was their guest, while Mary had chosen "the
      good part." Her character also appears in connection with the
      death of her brother (John 11:20,31,33). On the occasion of our
      Lord's last visit to Bethany, Mary brought "a pound of ointment
      of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus" as he
      reclined at table in the house of one Simon, who had been a
      leper (Matt. 26:6; Mark 14:3; John 12:2,3). This was an evidence
      of her overflowing love to the Lord. Nothing is known of her
      subsequent history. It would appear from this act of Mary's, and
      from the circumstance that they possessed a family vault
      (11:38), and that a large number of Jews from Jerusalem came to
      condole with them on the death of Lazarus (11:19), that this
      family at Bethany belonged to the wealthier class of the people.
      (See {MARTHA}.)
     
         (4.) Mary the wife of Cleopas is mentioned (John 19:25) as
      standing at the cross in company with Mary of Magdala and Mary
      the mother of Jesus. By comparing Matt. 27:56 and Mark 15:40, we
      find that this Mary and "Mary the mother of James the little"
      are on and the same person, and that she was the sister of our
      Lord's mother. She was that "other Mary" who was present with
      Mary of Magdala at the burial of our Lord (Matt. 27:61; Mark
      15:47); and she was one of those who went early in the morning
      of the first day of the week to anoint the body, and thus became
      one of the first witnesses of the resurrection (Matt. 28:1; Mark
      16:1; Luke 24:1).
     
         (5.) Mary the mother of John Mark was one of the earliest of
      our Lord's disciples. She was the sister of Barnabas (Col.
      4:10), and joined with him in disposing of their land and giving
      the proceeds of the sale into the treasury of the Church (Acts
      4:37; 12:12). Her house in Jerusalem was the common
      meeting-place for the disciples there.
     
         (6.) A Christian at Rome who treated Paul with special
      kindness (Rom. 16:6).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Mearah
      a cave, a place in the northern boundary of Palestine (Josh.
      13:4). This may be the cave of Jezzin in Lebanon, 10 miles east
      of Sidon, on the Damascus road; or probably, as others think,
      Mogheirizeh, north-east of Sidon.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Meraiah
      resistance, a chief priest, a contemporary of the high priest
      Joiakim (Neh. 12:12).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Moreh
      an archer, teacher; fruitful. (1.) A Canaanite probably who
      inhabited the district south of Shechem, between Mounts Ebal and
      Gerizim, and gave his name to the "plain" there (Gen. 12:6).
      Here at this "plain," or rather (R.V.) "oak," of Moreh, Abraham
      built his first altar in the land of Palestine; and here the
      Lord appeared unto him. He afterwards left this plain and moved
      southward, and pitched his tent between Bethel on the west and
      Hai on the east (Gen. 12:7, 8).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Moriah
      the chosen of Jehovah. Some contend that Mount Gerizim is meant,
      but most probably we are to regard this as one of the hills of
      Jerusalem. Here Solomon's temple was built, on the spot that had
      been the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite (2 Sam. 24:24,
      25; 2 Chr. 3:1). It is usually included in Zion, to the
      north-east of which it lay, and from which it was separated by
      the Tyropoean valley. This was "the land of Moriah" to which
      Abraham went to offer up his son Isaac (Gen. 22:2). It has been
      supposed that the highest point of the temple hill, which is now
      covered by the Mohammedan Kubbetes-Sakhrah, or "Dome of the
      Rock," is the actual site of Araunah's threshing-floor. Here
      also, one thousand years after Abraham, David built an altar and
      offered sacrifices to God. (See {JERUSALEM}; NUMBERING
      THE {PEOPLE}.)
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Myra
      one of the chief towns of Lycia, in Asia Minor, about 2 1/2
      miles from the coast (Acts 27:5). Here Paul removed from the
      Adramyttian ship in which he had sailed from Caesarea, and
      entered into the Alexandrian ship, which was afterwards wrecked
      at Melita (27:39-44).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Myrrh
      Heb. mor. (1.) First mentioned as a principal ingredient in the
      holy anointing oil (Ex. 30:23). It formed part of the gifts
      brought by the wise men from the east, who came to worship the
      infant Jesus (Matt. 2:11). It was used in embalming (John
      19:39), also as a perfume (Esther 2:12; Ps. 45:8; Prov. 7:17).
      It was a custom of the Jews to give those who were condemned to
      death by crucifixion "wine mingled with myrrh" to produce
      insensibility. This drugged wine was probably partaken of by the
      two malefactors, but when the Roman soldiers pressed it upon
      Jesus "he received it not" (Mark 15:23). (See {GALL}.)
     
         This was the gum or viscid white liquid which flows from a
      tree resembling the acacia, found in Africa and Arabia, the
      Balsamodendron myrrha of botanists. The "bundle of myrrh" in
      Cant. 1:13 is rather a "bag" of myrrh or a scent-bag.
     
         (2.) Another word _lot_ is also translated "myrrh" (Gen.
      37:25; 43:11; R.V., marg., "or ladanum"). What was meant by this
      word is uncertain. It has been thought to be the chestnut,
      mastich, stacte, balsam, turpentine, pistachio nut, or the
      lotus. It is probably correctly rendered by the Latin word
      ladanum, the Arabic ladan, an aromatic juice of a shrub called
      the Cistus or rock rose, which has the same qualities, though in
      a slight degree, of opium, whence a decoction of opium is called
      laudanum. This plant was indigenous to Syria and Arabia.
