"Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamothbaal, and Bethbaalmeon,"
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plain,.... Which was by Medeba, and reached to Dibon: Dibon, and Bamothbaal, and Bethbaalmeon; Dibon was rebuilt by Gad, though it
belonged to Reuben, and perhaps was inhabited by both, being on the borders of each; and Bamothbaal signifies the high places of Baal; see Num 22:41 ; perhaps this is the same with Bamoth in the valley, Num 21:20 ; and Bethbaalmeon is the same with Baalmeon in Num 32:38 ; where it is highly probable was a temple of Baal, since both "beth" signifies an house, and "meon" an habitation.
