Discovery BoxNumbers 21:15 
Context21:15 and the slope of the valleys 1
that extends to the dwelling of Ar, 2
and falls off at the border of Moab.”
Numbers 24:21
Context24:21 Then he looked on the Kenites and uttered this oracle:
“Your dwelling place seems strong,
and your nest 3 is set on a rocky cliff.
1 tc There are many variations in this text, but the MT reading of something like “the descent of the torrents/valleys” is preferable, since it is describing the topography.
2 sn The place is unknown; it is apparently an important city in the region.
3 sn A pun is made on the name Kenite by using the word “your nest” (קִנֶּךָ, qinnekha); the location may be the rocky cliffs overlooking Petra.
