Mizpah or Mispeh appears in several Palestine town names. The word derives from a verb meaning to look or watch. In the Old Testament, Jacob and Laban pledged a covenant at Mt. Gilead, marking the agreement with a heap of stones called Mizpat. The Lord watches between them as they part. The phrase was adopted as a benediction for a Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor.
