BETH-PEOR
Moabite city given to Reuben’s tribe in the partitioning of the Promised Land (Jos 13:20). Prior to the Israelites’ entrance into the land of Canaan, they made camp in a valley opposite Beth-peor. Here the people assembled to hear Moses’ final message after he had viewed the land from the top of Mt Pisgah (Dt 3:29; 4:46). It was here that Moses was buried, having been forbidden to enter the territory promised the descendants of Abraham (Dt 34:6). Baal-peor (or Baal of Peor) was the name of a local deity worshiped in this region (Nm 25:3-5).
