Rimmon-parez, or Rimmon--a city of Judah and Simeon (Jos 15:32); Libnah, so called from its white poplars (Jos 10:29), or, as some think, a white hill between Kadesh and Gaza (Jos 10:29); Rissah (El-arish); mount Shapher (Cassius); Moseroth, adjacent to mount Hor, in Wady Mousa.

And they removed from Almondiblathaim, and pitched in the mountains of Abarim,.... Sixteen miles from Almondiblathaim; these were so called from passages near them over the river Jordan: and this station was pitched before Nebo; one of those mountains, whither Moses went up and died.

John Calvin on Numbers 33:40-51

Numbers 33:40 40. And king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel. 40. Audivit autem Chananaeus rex Arad (is vero habitabat in meridie in terra Chanaan) quum ingrederentur filii Israel. 40. And king Arad the Canaanite. Although Moses gives no account of a battle, yet he briefly revives the recollection of the previous history; as much as to say, that in this part of their journey the Israelites at length met with their enemy, since they then began to fight with one of the nations of Canaan. 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…

Keil & Delitzsch on Numbers 33:1-49

As the Israelites had ended their wanderings through the desert, when they arrived in the steppes of Moab by the Jordan opposite to Jericho (Num 22:1), and as they began to take possession when the conquered land beyond Jordan was portioned out (ch. 32), the history of the desert wandering closes with a list of the stations which they had left behind them. This list was written out by Moses "at the command of Jehovah" (Num 33:2), as a permanent memorial for after ages, as every station which Israel left behind on the journey from Egypt to Canaan "through the great and terrible desert," was a memorial of the grace and faithfulness with which the Lord led His people safely "in the desert land…

The Church Fathers

For there follows after these things the station of Abarim over against Nebo, which is "passage"; but Nebo is interpreted "departure." For when the soul has made its journey through all these virtues and has ascended to the summit of perfection, it now passes over from the world and departs, as it is written of Enoch: "And he was not found, because God had translated him." And even if he who is of this sort should seem to be still in the world and to dwell in the flesh, nevertheless he is not found. In what is he not found? In no worldly act, in no carnal thing, in no conversation of vanity is he found. For God has translated him from these and has made him to be in the region of the virtues.
