From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Maarath
      desolation, a place in the mountains of Judah (Josh. 15:59),
      probably the modern village Beit Ummar, 6 miles north of Hebron.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Maroth
      bitterness; i.e., "perfect grief", a place not far from
      Jerusalem; mentioned in connection with the invasion of the
      Assyrian army (Micah 1:12).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Martha
      bitterness, the sister of Lazarus and Mary, and probably the
      eldest of the family, who all resided at Bethany (Luke 10:38,
      40, 41; John 11:1-39). From the residence being called "her
      house," some have supposed that she was a widow, and that her
      brother and sister lodged with her. She seems to have been of an
      anxious, bustling spirit, anxious to be helpful in providing the
      best things for the Master's use, in contrast to the quiet
      earnestness of Mary, who was more concerned to avail herself of
      the opportunity of sitting at his feet and learning of him.
      Afterwards at a supper given to Christ and his disciples in her
      house "Martha served." Nothing further is known of her.
     
         "Mary and Martha are representatives of two orders of human
      character. One was absorbed, preoccupied, abstracted; the other
      was concentrated and single-hearted. Her own world was the all
      of Martha; Christ was the first thought with Mary. To Martha
      life was 'a succession of particular businesses;' to Mary life
      'was rather the flow of one spirit.' Martha was Petrine, Mary
      was Johannine. The one was a well-meaning, bustling busybody;
      the other was a reverent disciple, a wistful listener." Paul had
      such a picture as that of Martha in his mind when he spoke of
      serving the Lord "without distraction" (1 Cor. 7:35).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Meraioth
      rebellions. (1.) Father of Amariah, a high priest of the line of
      Eleazar (1 Chr. 6:6, 7, 52).
     
         (2.) Neh. 12:15, a priest who went to Jerusalem with
      Zerubbabel. He is called Meremoth in Neh. 12:3.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Mered
