Contextual Overview

14 Wherefore do ye thinke thus: we are mightie and strong men of warre? 15 Moab is destroyed, and her cities brent vp, her chosen young men be slayne, saith the kyng whose name is the Lorde of hoastes. 16 The destruction of Moab commeth on a pace, and her fall is at hande. 17 All ye neighbours mourne for her, and all ye that knowe her name, say, O howe happeneth it that the strong staffe and the goodly rodde is thus broken? 18 And thou daughter Dibon, come downe from thy glory, and sit in thyrst: for he that destroyeth Moab, shall come vp to thee also, and breake downe thy strong holdes. 19 And thou that dwellest in Aroer, get thee to the streete, and looke about thee, aske them that are fled and escaped, and say, What thing is happened? 20 Oh Moab is confounded and ouercome: mourne and crye, tell it out at Arnon, that Moab is destroyed. 21 For iudgement shall come vpon the playne lande [namely] vpon Holon, and Iahzah, and vpon Mephaath. 22 And vpon Dibon, vpon Nabo, and Beth Deblathaim, 23 Upon Kiriathaim, and vpon Beth Gamul, vpon Beth Maon,

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Kiriathaim: Jeremiah 48:1, Genesis 14:5, Shaveh Kiriathaim, Joshua 13:19, Kirjathaim

Bethmeon: Numbers 32:38, Baal-meon, Joshua 13:17, Beth-baal-meon

Reciprocal: Isaiah 15:2 - is gone Ezekiel 25:9 - Baalmeon

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And upon Kirjathaim,.... Of which see Jeremiah 48:1;

and upon Bethgamul; this is nowhere else mentioned in Scripture; supposed by Grotius to be the Maccala of Ptolemy, put for Camala:

and upon Bethmeon: of which see Isaiah 15:2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Beth-meon - Meon is probably the Moabite Olympus, and thus Beth-Baal-Meon, the full name of this town Joshua 13:17, would signify the place where the heavenly Baal was worshipped.
