Elealeh
e-le-ale (, ‘elaleh, God has ascended): Lay in the country taken from Sihon and within the lot given to Reuben (Num 32:3, Num 32:17 f). Their names being changed seems to apply to all the towns mentioned. There is no indication of the other names. Elealeh is noticed with Heshbon in the oracles against Moab in Isa 15:4; Isa 16:9; Jer 48:34. Eusebius (Onomasticon) locates it one Roman mile from Heshbon. It is represented today by elAl, a mound crowned with ruins, about a mile North of Hesban.

Elealeh
Elealeh, a town of the Reubenites east of the Jordan (Num 32:3; Num 32:37); but which is named by the prophets as a city of the Moabites (Isa 15:4; Isa 16:9; Jer 48:34). It is usually mentioned along with Heshbon; and accordingly travelers find in the neighborhood of that city a ruined place, bearing the name of El Aal, which doubtless represents Elealeh. It stands upon the summit of a hill, and takes its name from its situation, Aal meaning ‘high.’ It commands the whole plain, and the view from it is very extensive. It is about a mile and a quarter north-east of Heshbon.
