Beth-peor
House of Peor; i.e., “temple of Baal-peor”, a place in Moab, on the east of Jordan, opposite Jericho. It was in the tribe of Reuben ([Josh. 13:20](/josh#Josh.13.20); [Deut. 3:29](/deut#Deut.3.29); [4:46](/deut#Deut.4.46)). In the “ravine” or valley over against Beth-peor Moses was probably buried ([Deut. 34:6](/deut#Deut.34.6)).
