Numbers 11:3 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Taberah - i. e. “burning:” not the name of a station, and accordingly not found in the list given in Numbers 33, but the name of the spot where the fire broke out. This incident might seem (compare Numbers 11:34) to have occurred at the station called, from another still more terrible event which shortly followed, Kibroth-hattaavah.

Numbers 11:3

3 And he called the name of the place Taberah:b because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.
