  1. Place-name in the travel itinerary · dominant

    In Numbers 33:13, the form is tagged as a proper noun and identifies the place where the people camp after setting out from Dophkah; the APB renders the clause “camped at Alush.” In Numbers 33:14, the same proper-noun use marks the point from which they set out before camping at Rephidim; the APB renders “set out from Alush.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Alush” in both verses, once as the campsite and once as the departure point. The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses place the proper name within the itinerary.
