Commentary

And they journeyed from Oboth,.... How long they stayed there is not certain: and pitched at Ijeabarim; w hich, according to Bunting (k), was sixteen miles from Oboth; Jarchi says it was the way that passengers pass by Mount Nebo to the land of Canaan, and which divides between the land of Moab and the land of the Amorites: in the wilderness which is before Moab; called the wilderness of Moab, Deu 2:8 . towards the sunrising; the east side of the land of Moab, Jdg 11:18 .
