Right before the Holy Week begins, the Bible records that Jesus had visited Bethany at the home of His friend Lazarus whom He had earlier raised from the dead. And while there, Mary, the Sister to Lazarus anointed Him with expensive perfume as recorded in the gospel of John 12
At Bethphage, Jesus sent two of Hs disciples to find a colt upon which He would ride into Jerusalem.
Bethphage means house of unripe pigs.
The distance between Bethany and Bethphage is about 2 Kilometers.
Every year, there is a Palm Sunday walk into Jerusalem which begins at Bethphage. This marks the beginning of the Holy Week.
