<p> (Heb. Kiryath'-Chutsoth', חֻצוֹת קַרְיִת, city of streets; Sept. πόλεις ἐπαύλεων), a city of Moab to which [[Balak]] took [[Balaam]] on his arrival to offer a preparatory sacrifice ( Numbers 22:39).

The city in question was probably the capital of the Moabitish king, usually called KIR-MOAB, and here distinguished from other places of a similar name (Kiujath meaning simply "city") by an epithet indicative of its extent; compare the presence of the court and " high places of Baal," as well as the conspicuous situation of the city ( Numbers 22:41), corresponding to that of Kerak.

<p> Kir'jath-hu'zoth. (city of streets). A place to which [[Balak]] accompanied [[Balaam]] immediately after his arrival in Moab, Numbers 22:39, and which is nowhere else mentioned. It appears to have lain between the [[Arnon]] (Wady Mojeb) and Bamoth-baal. Compare Numbers 22:36 and Numbers 22:41. </p> | |||
