My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old, literally, "whose bolts (extended) to Zoar, the three-year-old heifer," that is, the locks or fortified boundaries of Moab reached as far as Zoar, the city of Lot's refuge, on the peninsula extending into the southeastern end Of the Dead Sea; for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up, that is, the Moabite fugitives were ascending the incline of Luhith, in the southwestern part of their country, with bitter weeping; for in the way of Horonaim, on the road leading down t& this town in the valley, Jeremiah 48:5, they shall raise up a cry of destruction, bewailing the impending fall of the city.
