bā´moth, bā´moth-bā´al (בּמות בּעל, bāmōth-ba‛al, “high places of Baal”):

Bamoth is referred to in Num_21:19, Num_21:20, as a station in the journeyings of Israel North of the Arnon. It is probably the same place as the Bamoth-baal of Num_22:41 (Revised Version margin), whither Balak, king of Moab, conducted Balaam to view and to curse Israel. Bamoth-baal is named in Jos_13:17 as one of the cities given to Reuben. Mesha, on the Moabite Stone, speaks of having “rebuilt” Beth-bamoth.
