Arbet Kozhaya : ウィキペディア英語版 | Arbet Kozhaya
Arbet Kozhaya, also known as Arbet Qozhaya or Arabet Kozhaya, ((アラビア語:عربة قزحيا), ) is one of the fifty-six towns and villages, which make up the Zgharta District (''Zgharta Zawie'') in the North Governorate of Lebanon.〔The village name is spelt as either Arbet Kozhaya or Arbet Qozhaya, depending on way the Arabic name is transliterated. For this article we will keep to former spelling〕 ==Origin of the name== The village is named after the neighboring Monastery of Kozhaya, known as the Monastery of Saint Anthony the Great (''Mar Antonios al-Kabir''). The monastery is some 950 metres above sea level in the Valley of Kozhaya. The word ''Arbet'' (Aarbet) means ''inclined'', since the village is on an inclined plane overlooking Kozhaya. The name ''Kozhaya'' is Syriac in origin and means ''the treasure of life'', with ''treasure'' representing ''Christ'', for whom the monks of the Monastery abandon worldly goods and follow an ascetic life dedicated to prayer and spirituality; and ''life'' referring to the abundance of water endowing nature with life in the valley.
