    In Numbers 33:34, the proper noun occurs in the clause where the group sets out from Jotbathah and camps at the named location; the APB renders, "They set out from Jotbathah and camped at Abronah." In Numbers 33:35, the same proper noun marks the departure point before the group camps at Ezion-geber; the APB renders, "They set out from Abronah and camped at Ezion-geber."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as "Abronah" in both verses, first as the place where the group camps and then as the place from which it sets out. The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses identify the same itinerary location.
