Jeremiah 48:23

"on Dibon, on Nebo, on Beth Diblathaim,"

Key Reflection

These references to Dibon, Nebo, and Beth Diblathaim in Jeremiah 48:23 serve as symbolic locations where the calamity described will be felt, emphasizing the widespread devastation that will come upon Moab. These cities, though significant in their own right, are part of a broader narrative of divine judgment affecting multiple aspects of Moabite society and geography.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Beth-meon -Meon is probably the Moabite Olympus, and thus Beth-Baal-Meon, the full name of this townJoshua 13:17, would signify the place where the heavenly Baal was worshipped.
