Contextual Overview

14 How do you say, We are mighty and strong men for war? 15 Moab is ravaged, and her cities have come up. And his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter, says the King whose name is Jehovah of Hosts. 16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his evil hurries fast. 17 All who are around him mourn for him. And all who know his name, say, How the strong staff is broken, the beautiful rod! 18 O dweller, daughter of Dibon, come down from glory and sit in thirst. For a ravager of Moab shall come on you; he has ruined your strongholds. 19 O dweller of Aroer, stand by the way and watch. Ask him who flees and her who escapes; say, What has happened? 20 Moab is put to shame, for it is torn down. Wail and cry! Tell it in Arnon that Moab is ravaged. 21 And judgment has come to the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahazah, and on Mephaath, 22 and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth-diblathaim, 23 and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth-gamul, and on 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.
