What he did . or , Vaheb in Suphah , The following seems to be the sense of this passage . "From Vaheb in Suphah , and the torrents of Arnon , even the effusion of the torrents , which goeth down to the dwelling of Ar , and lieth for the boundary of Moab; even from thence to the well; . which is the well of which Jehovah spake unto Moses , Gather the people , and I will give them water. Then sang Israel this song . Spring up , O Well! Answer ye to it. The well , princes digged it; even nobles of the people digged it , by a decree , upon their borders and from the wilderness . or the well , as in LXX to Mattanah; and from Mattanah ," etc. The whole of this , fromNumbers 21 . 14-20 , is a fragment from "the book of the wars of Jehovah ," probably a book of remembrances or directions written by Moses for the use of Joshua , and describes the several boundaries of the land of Moab. This rendering removes every obscurity , and obviates every difficulty.

Arnon . Arnon is a stream which takes its rise in the mountains of Moab , and , by a north-west course , during which it receives the waters of several streams , runs into the Dead sea. It is now called Wady Modjeb , and divides the province of Pelka from that of Kerek , as it formerly divided the kingdoms of the Moabites and Amorites. Its principal source is at a short distance to the north-east of Katrane , a station of the Syrian Hadj , where it is called Seyl Sayde; and lower down it receives the name of Esseim el Kereim , or Szefye.
