    Dictionary Summary: A mountain in the land of Moab from which Moses looked for the first and the last time on the Promised Land ([Deut. 32:49](/deut#Deut.32.49); [34:1](/deut#Deut.34.1)). It has been identified with Jebel Nebah, on the eastern shore of the Dead Sea, near its northern end, and about 5 miles south-west of Heshbon. It was the summit of the ridge of Pisgah (q.v.), which was a part of the range of the “mountains of Abarim.” It is about 2,643 feet in height, but from its position it commands a view of Western Palestine. Close below it are the plains of Moab, where Balaam, and afterwards Moses, saw the tents of Israel spread along. 2
