Beth-Jeshimoth

A city given to the tribe of Reuben (Joshua 13:20), which is later described as a Moabite town (Ezekiel 25:9). Before Israel’s conquest of the promised land, they made camp along the Jordan from Beth-jeshimoth to Abel-shittim (Numbers 33:49). The city is usually identified with Tell el-Azeimeh.
