“Rameumptom has at least one Semitic root: ram, which refers to a ‘high place’ like the Hill Ramah (see Ether 15:11). ‘In modern Israel are the town of Ramallah, located in the tops of the Judean hills just north of Jerusalem, and Rameem, which literally means “the heights” and is located on the top of the hills near the Lebanese border’ [Ludlow, Companion to Your Study of the Book of Mormon, 213].
“Once a week, the apostate Zoramites stood on the Rameumptom to offer prayers extolling their greatness. Their prayers were memorized and self-serving. In the prayers, Zoramites told of their belief that God was a spirit and had elected them to be saved. Among their other apostate beliefs was that religious practices were to be observed only one day a week” (Black, 400 Questions and Answers, 160).
