Contextual Overview
10Now the sons of Israel moved out and camped at Oboth. 11They journeyed on from Oboth and camped at Iye-abarim, in the wilderness facing Moab, toward the sunrise.12From there they set out and camped in the Wadi Zered. 13From there they journeyed on and camped on the other side of [the river] Arnon, which is in the wilderness that extends from the boundary of the Amorites; for [the river] Arnon is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites. 14That is why it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD: "Waheb in Suphah, And the wadis of the Arnon [River], 15And the slope of the wadis That stretches toward the site of Ar And leans to the border of Moab." 16From there the Israelites went on to Beer, that is the well where the LORD said to Moses, "Gather the people together and I will give them water." 17Then Israel sang this song, "Spring up, O well! Sing to it, 18The well which the leaders dug, Which the nobles of the people hollowed out With the scepter and with their staffs." And from the wilderness Israel journeyed to Mattanah, 19and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they journeyed from Oboth,.... How long they stayed there is not certain:
and pitched at Ijeabarim; which, according to Bunting k, was sixteen miles from Oboth; Jarchi says it was the way that passengers pass by Mount Nebo to the land of Canaan, and which divides between the land of Moab and the land of the Amorites:
in the wilderness which is before Moab; called the wilderness of Moab, Deuteronomy 2:8
towards the sunrising; the east side of the land of Moab,
Judges 11:18.
k Ut supra. (Travels of the Patriarchs, &c. 83.)
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The earlier stations in this part of their journey were Zalmonah and Punon Numbers 33:41-42. Oboth was north of Punon, east of the northern part of Edom, and is pretty certainly the same as the present pilgrim halting-place el-Ahsa. Ije (“ruinous heaps”) of Abarim, or Iim of Abarim, was so called to distinguish it from another Iim in southwestern Canaan Joshua 15:29. Abarim denotes generally the whole upland country on the east of the Jordan. The Greek equivalent of the name is Peraea.
