KIBROTH-HATTAAVAH

kib-roth-ha-ta'-a-va, kib-roth (qibhroth ha-ta'awah "the graves of greed"):

A desert camp of the Israelites, one day's journey from the wilderness of Sinai. There the people lusted for flesh to eat, and, a great number of quails being sent, a plague resulted; hence, the name (Numbers 11:34; 33:16; Deuteronomy 9:22).
