Gill's Notes on the Bible
And from thence they went to Beer,.... A place so called from a well which sprung up here, of which the following account is given:
that is, the well whereof the Lord spake unto Moses; promising him to give it to the children of Israel, without asking for it; which was a very singular favour, and for which they were thankful: saying to him,
gather the people together, and I will give them water; for as they were now gone from the river Arnon, and the streams and brooks of it, they might be in want of water, though they did not murmur as they had been used to do; and without their petition for it, the Lord promises to give it to them; and that they might be witness of the miracle that would be wrought for them, they are ordered to be gathered together.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Beer is probably the âWell,â afterward known as Beer-elim, the âwell of heroesâ Isaiah 15:8.
