Ma’ale Adumim (Hebrew: מַעֲלֵה אֲדֻמִּים, Arabic: معالي أدوميم) is an urban Israeli settlement and a city in the West Bank, seven kilometers (4.3 miles) from Jerusalem.[2] Ma’ale Adumim achieved city status in 1991. In 2015 its population was 37,817. Located along Highway 1, which connects it to Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area.
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[3]
The town name “Ma’ale Adumim” is taken from the Joshua 15:7 and Joshua 18:17:[4]The boundary [of the tribe of Judah] ascended from the Valley of Achor to Debir and turned north to Gilgal, facing the Ascent of Adumim, which is south of the wadi. Literally “Ascent of Red”, it takes its name from the red rock lining the ascent from the Dead Sea.[5]
