Numbers 21:32 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer— Another city belonging to Moab, but now in the possession of the Amorites, which the Israelites did not take at first. It should seem, from ch. Numbers 32:1. 2 Samuel 24:5-6 and 1 Chronicles 26:31 to have been situated not far from mount Gilead. St. Jerome places it about fifteen miles distant from Heshbon. After the captivity of the ten tribes, it fell again into the hands of the Moabites, Jeremiah 48:32.
