Bottles, an encampment of the Israelites during the wanderings in the wilderness (Num. 33:43), the first after the setting up of the brazen serpent.
Oboth
Oboth is a stopping place, one name in the long list of camps on Israel’s way through the wilderness. Numbers 21:10 says “the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in Oboth,” and the next verse says they “journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim.” Numbers 33 repeats the stop in the full record of the route, after Punon and before Ijeabarim, near the border of Moab. Scripture tells of no event there. Numbers 33 shows the whole journey made one camp at a time.
