Kirjath-huzoth : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kirjath-huzoth
Kirjath-huzoth or Qiryath Chutsoth, meaning ''city of streets'' or (in the Septuagint), ''city of villages'', , was a Moabite city which some identify with Kirjathaim in eastern Jordan.〔Bible Atlas http://bibleatlas.org/kiriath-huzoth.htm accessed 23 June 2015〕 According to a story recorded in Numbers 22-24, Balak, King of Moab, received and entertained the soothsayer Balaam here, whom he had invited from Pethor, among the "mountains of the east," beyond the Euphrates, to lay a curse upon the Israelites, whose progress he had no hope otherwise of arresting. Balak offered a sacrifice of oxen and sheep there.〔Numbers 22:40〕 It was probably from the summit of Attarus, the high place near the city, that the soothsayer first saw the encampments of Israel. ==References==
