(Hebrew Yirpeel', יַרְפְּאֵל , Restored By God; Sept. Ι᾿Ερφαήλ ), a city in the tribe of Benjamin, mentioned between Rekem and Taralah ( Joshua 18:27). The associated names only afford a conjectural position somewhere in the district west of Jerusalem, possibly at el-Kustul (Lat. castellum), on a conical hill about half way between Kuloniyeh (Lat. colonia) and Soba (Robinson, Researches, 2, 328).
