<p> | <p> [[Abarim]] (''ăb'a-r'' ''ĭm'' or ''a-bä'rim'' ), ''mountains beyond,'' or ''of the fords,'' a range of mountains east of the river Jordan, in the land of Moab, opposite Jericho. Numbers 27:12; Numbers 33:47; Deuteronomy 32:49. Nebo, Peor, and Pisgah belong to this range. In Jeremiah 22:20 the word is translated "passages" in the Authorized Version, but the Revised Version reads Abarim. </p> <p> ''Ije-abarim'' in Numbers 21:11 means ''heaps'' or ''ruins of Abarim,'' and was near the same range. </p> | ||
