O'BOTH (bottles, water-skins), one of the stations of the Israelites east of Moab. Num 21:10; Num 33:43. It was the first encampment after the brazen serpent was set up, and before they reached Ije-abarim. It is perhaps near the Wady el-Ahsa, on the pilgrim-route between Damascus and Mecca. This was probably on the boundary between Edom and Moab, and extends north-westward to the Dead Sea.
