John Gill on Numbers 33:40

And King Arad the Canaanite,.... Or the king of Arad the Canaanite: which dwelt in the land of Canaan, he heard of the coming of the children of Israel; towards the land of Canaan, in order to possess it, and he came out and fought with them, and was vanquished; see Numbers 21:1, this was when Israel was at Mount Hor; from whence they departed to Zalmonah, twenty eight miles from the mount; and from thence to Punon, which was twenty more; and so to Oboth, which was twenty four miles from Punon: and thence to Ijeabarim, in the border of Moab, which was sixteen miles, see Numbers 21:9.

In a word, the meaning is, that this was the beginning of their warfare, when the land which God had promised them as an inhe…

The Church Fathers

After these things there follows the station of Zalmonah, which is interpreted "shadow of a portion." That shadow I think is meant, of which the prophet too said: "The spirit of our countenance, Christ the Lord, of whom we said: In his shadow we shall live among the Gentiles." But also that shadow is like to this, of which it is said: "The Spirit of the Lord shall overshadow you." The shadow, therefore, of our portion, which furnishes us shade from all the heat of temptations, is Christ the Lord and the Holy Spirit.
