Josué 13:17

17 hasta Hesbón y todas las poblaciones de la meseta: Dibón, Bamot Baal, Bet Baal Megón,

Josué 13:17 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 13:17

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 ( Numbers 22:41 ) ; perhaps this is the same with Bamoth in the valley, ( Numbers 21:20 ) ; and Bethbaalmeon is the same with Baalmeon in ( Numbers 32:38 ) ; where it is highly probable was a temple of Baal, since both "beth" signifies an house, and "meon" an habitation.

Josué 13:17 In-Context

15 Estas son las tierras que Moisés había entregado a cada uno de los clanes de la tribu de Rubén:
16 abarcaban desde Aroer, que estaba a orillas del arroyo Arnón, con la población ubicada en medio del valle. Incluían también toda la meseta de Medeba
17 hasta Hesbón y todas las poblaciones de la meseta: Dibón, Bamot Baal, Bet Baal Megón,
18 Yahaza, Cademot, Mefat,
19 Quiriatayin, Sibma, Zaret Sajar, que está en la colina del valle,
