Joshua 13:27

And in the valley, Betharam, and Bethnimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, Jordan and his border, even unto the edge of the sea of Chinnereth on the other side Jordan eastward.

And in the valley - i:e., of the Jordan, which on the east of the river extended from Hesban, north of the Dead Sea, to the lake of Tiberias (Joshua 12:3). The site of Beth-aram (Numbers 32:36) was, according to Jerome ('Onomast.'), below Wady Phogor, at the foot of Peor. Grove places it in Wady Seif, or Sir, which falls into the Ghor opposite Jericho, and half-way between Wady Hesban and Wady Shoaib. Beth-nimrah (Numbers 32:36; Isaiah 15:6) - or simply Nimrah (Numbers 32:3), now the ruins called Nimrim, at the mouth of Wady Shoaib. Jerome ('Onomast.') states that the town was still standing in his day, two miles from Jordan and five miles north of Beth-aram, called by Herod Livias in honour of Augustus.

Succoth - perhaps the ruins called Sukkot, described by Burck-hardt (p. 345).

And Zaphon - near the sea of Galilee. The enumeration of places in the valley of Jordan, which formed the boundary of the Gadite territory, is made from south to north. [Septuagint, Safan.]
