Rithmah
Rithmah
(Heb. Rithmah’, , heath; Sept. ), the seventeenth station of the Hebrews in the wilderness (Num 33:18-19). About half a day’s journey south from Wady Kiseima, SEE AZMON is found a valley called Wady Rithimath, or Wady Abu-Retemat. Rothem literally is a broom bush; hence Rithmah, the region of the brush or heath, and near this wady the broom bushes are abundant. So Schwarz (Palest. p. 212), who identifies Rithmah with Kerdesh-Barnea. It probably lay immediately west of that place. SEE EXODE.

Rithmah
A station in Israel’s march (Num 33:18-19): from rethem or retem, the “broom”; KJV “juniper.” The same encampment as that at Kadesh (Num 13:26). Rithmah is a descriptive epithet, from the broom abounding there; probably applied to the encampment in this neighborhood in the first march toward Canaan, to distinguish it from the second encampment in the same district, but not the same spot, in the 40th year (Num 33:36-38; Num 13:21-26).
