Oboth was a temporary camping place of the Israelites during their wilderness wanderings. It was located between Punon and Iye-abarim (Numbers 21:10–11; 33:43–44). Its exact location is uncertain. Some scholars have attempted to identify Oboth with ‘Ain el-Weiba, which is 53.1 kilometers (33 miles) south of the Dead Sea in the Arabah Valley.
