14; 22:36; De 2:24; Jud 11:18; Isa 16:2; Jer 48:20 in the book.Jos 10:13; 2Sa 1:18What he did. or, Vaheb in Suphah.The following seems to be the sense of this passage: "From Vaheb in Suphah, and the torrents of Arnon, even the effusion of the torrents, which goeth down to the dwelling of Ar, and lieth for the boundary of Moab; even from thence to the well; (which is the well of which Jehovah spake unto Moses, Gather the people, and I will give them water. Then sang Israel this song: Spring up, O Well! Answer ye to it. The well, princes digged it; even nobles of the people digged it, by a decree, upon their borders;) and from the wilderness (or the well, as in LXX.) to Mattanah; and from Mattanah," etc. The whole of this, from ver. 14-20, is a fragment from "the book of the wars of Jehovah," probably a book of remembrances or directions written by Moses for the use of Joshua, and describes the several boundaries of the land of Moab. This rendering removes every obscurity, and obviates every difficulty. Ar.28; De 2:9,18,29; Isa 15:1lieth. Heb. leaneth.Numbers 21:27-30

Distress not the Moabites. or, Use no hostility againstMoab. Nu 22:4; Jud 11:17; 2Ch 20:10Ar.Ar was situated south of the Arnon; and was called by the Greek writers Areopolis, and thought by them to be so named because the inhabitants worshipped [Ares,] or Mars. St. Jerome says that it was destroyed by an earthquake when he was an infant. Burckhardt supposes that the ruins of a small castle called Mehatet el Hadj, may be the site of this ancient city. 5; Nu 21:15,28the children.19; Ge 19:36,37; Ps 83:8Deuteronomy 2:19
