Then the Israelites set out and camped at Oboth.
Commentary on Numbers 21:102 voices
The earlier stations in this part of their journey were Zalmonah and Punon Num 33:41-42. Oboth was north of Punon, east of the northern part of Edom, and is pretty certainly the same as the present pilgrim halting-place el-Ahsa. Ije (ruinous heaps) of Abarim, or Iim of Abarim, was so called to distinguish it from another Iim in southwestern Canaan Jos 15:29. Abarim denotes generally the whole upland country on the east of the Jordan. The Greek equivalent of the name is Peraea.

And they journeyed from Oboth,....

- Numbers 33:44
They set out from Oboth and camped at Iye-abarim on the border of Moab.
Commentary on Numbers 33:441 voice
Ije-abarim - The heaps of Abarim. See Num 21:11. Situation uncertain. It is called Iim in the following verse. As the word signifies heaps or protuberances, it probably means tumuil or small hills near some of the fords of Jordan. Stat. 38.
