Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he called the name of the place Taberah,.... That is, "burning": Moses called it so; or it may be rendered impersonally, it was called s so in later times by the people:
because the fire of the Lord burnt among them; to perpetuate the, memory of this kind of punishment for their sins, that it might be a terror and warning to others; and this history is indeed recorded for our caution in these last days, that we murmur not as these Israelites did, and were destroyed of the destroyer, 1 Corinthians 10:10.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Taberah - i. e. âburning:â not the name of a station, and accordingly not found in the list given in Numbers 33:0, but the name of the spot where the fire broke out. This incident might seem (compare Numbers 11:34) to have occurred at the station called, from another still more terrible event which shortly followed, Kibroth-hattaavah.
