Land of Moab

모압 땅

The land whose border, by Numbers 21:13, is the Arnon, between Moab and the Amorites. Numbers 21:26 says Sihon king of the Amorites had fought against the former king of Moab and taken all his land as far as the Arnon. In Numbers 22:3–4 Moab is very afraid of the children of Israel because they are many, and Balak the son of Zippor is king of Moab at that time; at 25:1 the people of Israel begin to play the prostitute with the daughters of Moab. Numbers 33:44 places Iye Abarim on the border of Moab. Deuteronomy 1:5 says Moses began to declare this law beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab; 2:8–9 says, “We turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab”, and has the LORD say, “Don’t bother Moab, neither contend with them in battle; for I will not give you any of his land for a possession”, and 2:18, “You are to pass over Ar, the border of Moab, today.” Deuteronomy 29:1 speaks of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant made with them in Horeb. At Deuteronomy 32:49 the LORD tells Moses to go up to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, across from Jericho; 34:5 has Moses die in the land of Moab, and 34:6 says, “He buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth Peor.” Ruth 1:1–2 says that in the days when the judges judged, when there was a famine in the land, Elimelech, a man of Bethlehem Judah, went to live in the country of Moab with his wife and his two sons, and 1:22 that Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the country of Moab.
