Ascent Of Luhith
Morrish Bible Dictionary [1]
Some place in Moab which would be ascended with weeping when God's judgements were poured out upon Moab. Isaiah 15:5; Jeremiah 48:5 . Talat el Heisah, 31 46' N, 35 43' E has been suggested as probably the place alluded to. It lies between Mount Pisgah and Mount Nebo.
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [2]

lū´hith , lōō´hith , מעלה הלּוּחית , ma‛ălēh ha - lūḥı̄th ): A place named in Isaiah 15:5; Jeremiah 48:5 . It is clearly identical with the way, or descent, of Horonaim. Eusebius, Onomasticon places Luhith between Areopolis and Zoar. Some way is intended by which fugitives from the Arabah could reach the uplands of the Moabite plateau. Guthe thinks it may be the road which leads from the district of the ancient Zoar on the eastern shore of the Dead Sea to the uplands through Wādy Bene Ḥammad . Along this track ran also a Roman road. If Horonaim were the higher of the two places, this might account for the way being called the "descent" of Horonaim as going down from that place, and the "ascent" of Luhith as going up thence. Neither place can as yet be identified with certainty.
