Numbers12:16
16 And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth , and pitched in the wilderness of Paran .
Where they abode, as is said, Numb. 11. 35. for Miriams sake.
(i. e.) In another part of the same wilderness, as may be gathered from Numb. 10. 12. See also Deut. 33. 2. It is possible they might have removed out of one part of that wilderness into another wilderness, and then returned again into another part of it, as we know the Israelites had many strange windings and turnings in their Wilderness travels. And this part was more especially called Rithmah Numb. 33. 18. and Kadesh-barnea, Numb. 13. 26. Deut. 1. 19. which were two noted places in that part, both which seem to be comprehended within their camp or near adjoyning to it.
