Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - And pitched at Ije-abarim. Ije (עִיִיּ), or Ijm (עִיִּים), as it is called in chapter Numbers 33:45, signifies "heaps" or "ruins." Abarim is a word of somewhat doubtful meaning, best rendered "ridges" or "ranges." It was apparently applied to the whole of Peraea in later times (cf. Jeremiah 22:20, "passages"), but in the Pentateuch is confined elsewhere to the ranges facing Jericho. These "ruinous heaps of the ranges" lay to the east of Moab, along the desert side of which Israel was now marching, still going northwards: they cannot-be identified.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) At Ije-abarim.--This word seems to denote the heaps (or, ruins) of passages or of coast or river lands--i.e., of districts bordering upon the sea or a river. It is called Iim or Iyim simply in Numbers 33:45.
