Mis'rephoth-ma'im. (the flew of waters). A place in northern Palestine. Dr. Thomson treats Misrephoth-maim as identical with a collection of springs called Ain-Musheirifeh, on the seashore, close under the Ras en-Nakhura; but this has the disadvantage of being very far from Sidon. May it not rather be the place, with which we are familiar, in the later history as Zarephat, near Sidon?
