Contextual Overview

14How can you say, “We are warriors—valiant men for battle”? 15The destroyer of Moab and its townshas come up,and the best of its young menhave gone down to slaughter. 16Moab’s calamity is near at hand;his disaster is rushing swiftly. 17Mourn for him, all you surrounding nations,everyone who knows his name.Say, “How the mighty scepter is shattered,the glorious staff!” 18Come down from glory; sit on parched ground,resident of the daughter of Dibon,for the destroyer of Moab has come against you;he has destroyed your fortresses. 19Stand by the highway and watch,resident of Aroer!Ask him who is fleeing or her who is escaping,“What happened?” 20Moab is put to shame, indeed dismayed.Wail and cry out!Declare by the Arnonthat Moab is destroyed. 21“Judgment has come to the land of the plateau—to Holon, Jahzah, Mephaath, 22Dibon, Nebo, Beth-diblathaim, 23Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, Beth-meon,

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.
