According to the Moabite Stone it was again lost to Israel when Mesha, king of Moab, drove out the Israelites and reclaimed it. Kedemoth gave its name to a nearby desert area (<span class='bible'>Deu 2:26<\/span>). It is probably ez-Za&lsquo;feran, about sixteen kilometres north of the Arnon, near the Amorite&rsquo;s eastern border.

The Massoretes themselves say as much: they mention, however, that they are found in several very ancient copies; and the learned Hottinger, who has carefully entered into the subject, remarks, that they are found in the incomparable manuscript of the duke of Roan, found in Italy, A.C. 1495. See his Thesaur. Philolog. lib. 1: cap. 2 qu. 4 p. 181. Besides, the whole connection evidently shews that these two verses belong to the text; (see Bishop Walton&#8217;s <em>Considerator considered, <\/em>ch. 6: sect. 14.) and we read them in the version of the LXX.
