Numbers 22:40-41
Num 23:2, Num 23:14, Num 23:30; Gen 31:54; Prov 1:16 high places Bamoth baal, "the high places of Baal," probably the same as Bamoth mentioned in Num 21:19-20; evidently not far from Baal-meon, in the mountains of Abarim. For the Israelites were now encamped in the plains of Moab, which these mountains overlook. Baal, which signifies a lord or governor, was a name common to many idols; and probably here was the same as Chemosh, the god of Moab. Num 25:2-3; Deut 12:2; 2Chr 11:15; Jer 48:35 utmost Num 23:13
