Mountains east of the Dead Sea and the lower Jordan, "over against Jericho," within the territory of Moab and the tribe of Reuben. It is impossible to define exactly their extent. The mountains Nebe, Pisgah, and Peor were in the Abarim, Numbers 27:12; 33:47,48; Deuteronomy 32:49; 34:1 . Ije-abarim, Numbers 21:11 , seems to denote the southern part of the same chain.
