Rehovot
Rehovot () is a city in the Center District of Israel, about 20 kilometers (12 mi) south of Tel Aviv. According to the Israel Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), at the end of 2014 the city had a total population of 128,892. Rehovot was established in 1890 by Polish Jewish immigrants on land purchased from a Christian Arab. ==Etymology== Israel Belkind, founder of the Bilu movement, proposed the name "Rehovot" (lit. 'wide expanses') based on Genesis 26:22: "And he called the name of it ''Rehoboth''; and he said: 'For now the Lord hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land'." The biblical town of ''Rehoboth'' is located in the Negev Desert.〔(Jewish Agency for Israel: Rehovot )〕
