Contextual Overview
14 "How can you say, ‘We are heroes, warriors valiant in battle'? 15 They are ravaging Mo'av, attacking its cities; its best young men go down to be slaughtered," says the king, whose name is Adonai -Tzva'ot. 16 Mo'av's ruin is coming soon, its disaster speeds on swiftly. 17 Pity him, all of you who are near him, all of you who know his name; say, "How the mighty scepter is shattered, that splendid staff!" 18 Descend from your glory, and sit in thirst, daughter living in Divon; for Mo'av's destroyer advances on you; he has destroyed your strongholds. 19 Stand by the road and watch, inhabitant of ‘Aro‘er; ask the man fleeing and the woman escaping, "What is going on?" 20 Mo'av is disgraced, indeed, destroyed. Wail aloud! Shriek! Proclaim it by the Arnon that Mo'av has been laid waste. 21 Judgment has come on the Plain — on Holon, Yachtzah, Mefa‘at, 22 Divon, N'vo, Beit-Diblatayim, 23 Kiryatayim, Beit-Gamul, Beit-M‘on,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And judgment is come upon the plain country,.... Of Moab, which was for the most part such, especially that which lay near Arnon; the judgment of God's vengeance, punishment for sin, by the hand of the Chaldeans. The Targum is,
"they that execute vengeance are come:''
upon Holon; a city of Moab; of which see Joshua 15:51; it had its name perhaps from the sandy ground on which it stood. Grotius takes it to be the Alabana of Ptolemy:
and upon Jahazah: the same with Jahaz, Joshua 15:51- :; reckoned by Grotius to be the Jadu of Ptolemy; see Joshua 13:18;
and upon Mephaath; of which see Joshua 13:18; said by Grotius to be the Maipha of Ptolemy.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Holon - This place apparently took its name from caverns in its neighborhood.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
