From Shittim unto Gilgal— From Shittim even unto the mountainous places, whither Balak carried Balaam, that he might thence curse the people of Israel. The original word is הגלגל hagilgal, the root whereof is גל gal, a heap, or high place. See Genesis 46:34; Genesis 46:34. Balak was beyond Jordan, at its eastern bank, where we do not read of there having been any such place as Gilgal; for the Gilgal where the ark continued for some time was situated on this side Jordan. Instead of righteousness, Houbigant reads goodness. See his note, and Calmet.
