Which was formerly the royal city of Sihon king of the Amori tes, and was first given to and rebuilt by the Reubenites, but was upon the border of the tribe of Gad; and appears from hence to have been one of their cities, Num 21:26 , Jazer with her suburbs; sometimes called Jaazer, another city in the same country, and near Heshbon; see Num 21:32 , four cities in all: which were Ramothgilead, Mahanaim, Heshbon, and Jazer.
