== == * At this stage, we are unable to answer this question, because Arimathea can not be located. Logically, it should be in Judea, and close to Jerusalem, since there would be no point in a wealthy Arimathean having a tomb in Jerusalem, waiting for his own funeral, unless he could expect his body to be carried there for burial. MacDonald has suggested that the reason it can not be found is that the town of Arimathea never really existed. * The distance from Arimathea, in the hills of Ephraim northwest of Jerusalem, to Bethany was approximately 20 miles.
