("Springs of Pisgah," or "the hill") (Deuteronomy 3:17; Deuteronomy 4:49; Joshua 12:3; Joshua 13:20).

From the co-author of the classic Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary, Fausset's Bible Dictionary stands as one of the best single-volume Bible encyclopedias ever written for general use.

This makes Fausset an excellent tool for both everyday Bible study and in-depth lesson or sermon preparation.Wikipedia
