Numbers21:20

20 And from Bamoth in the valley , that is in the countrey of Moab, to the top of Pisgah , which looketh toward Jeshimon.

Or, the valley, which might be called Bamoth, not because it was a place naturally high, but from divers other reasons which may be easily guessed. Or, to the valley, or to that valley, that famous or rather infamous valley, to wit of Abel-shittim, Numb. 33. 49. where they committed those foul abominations recorded Numb. 25.

This was the top of those high hills of Abarim; of which see Deut. 3. 17, 27. & 32. 49. & 34. 1, 6.

Marginal references: Heb field.; Or, the hill.; Or, the wilderness.
