VERSE 1
- Arad.
   * Nu 33:40 Jos 12:14 Jud 1:16
- the way of the spies.
  Dr. Kennicott remarks, that the word {atharim,} rendered spies
  in our version, is in the Greek a proper name ([            ,]
  Atharim).

- and they utterly.
  {Wyyacharem,} rather with the LXX. [                        ,]
  "and they anathematised, or devoted them to destruction;" for
  it is certain that these Canaanites and Arad were not utterly
  destroyed till the time of Joshua.  (Jos 12:14.)

- the name.
   * Nu 14:45 De 1:44 1Sa 30:30
  {Hormah,} that is, utter destruction.  {Chormah,} rather a
  devoting to destruction:  so LXX. [                     ,] and
  Tremellius, {devotio sive anathema.}

VERSE 14 
 - in the book.
   * Jos 10:13 2Sa 1:18
- What 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.

VERSE 25 
 - dwelt.
   * :31; 32:33-42 De 2:12
- in Heshbon.
  Heshbon was situated, according to Eusebius, twenty miles east
  of Jordan; and Jerome, who places it at the same distance,
  says it was, in his time, a very considerable city.  It still
  subsists, in ruins, under the name of Heshban.

- villages.  Heb. daughters.
   * Eze 16:46,49,53


VERSE 26 
 - Arnon.
  Arnon is a stream which takes its rise in the mountains of
  Moab, and, by a north-west course, during which it receives
  the waters of several streams, runs into the Dead sea.  It is
  now called Wady Modjeb, and divides the province of Pelka from
  that of Kerek, as it formerly divided the kingdoms of the
  Moabites and Amorites.  Its principal source is at a short
  distance to the north-east of Katrane, a station of the Syrian
  Hadj, where it is called Seyl Sayde; and lower down it
  receives the name of Esseim el Kereim, or Szefye.
