It is often associated with Mount Nebo, from which Moses viewed the Promised Land before his death. Pisgah is located in the region of Moab, east of the Jordan River, and is part of the Abarim mountain range.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b> <br>Pisgah is mentioned several times in the Scriptures, often in the context of Israel's journey to the Promised Land. One of the most notable references is found in <a href="/deuteronomy/34.htm">Deuteronomy 34:1</a>, where Moses ascends Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, to see the land that God promised to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Berean Standard Bible states: "Then Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which faces Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land—from Gilead as far as Dan."<br><br><b>Geographical Significance:</b> <br>Pisgah is part of the Abarim range, which runs along the eastern side of the Jordan Valley. The specific peak of Pisgah is often identified with Mount Nebo, which provides a panoramic view of the land of Canaan. This location holds historical and theological importance as the vantage point from which Moses saw the fulfillment of God's promise to the patriarchs, even though he himself was not permitted to enter the land.<br><br><b>Theological Importance:</b> <br>Pisgah represents a place of revelation and transition. It is here that Moses, the great leader and prophet of Israel, concludes his earthly journey. The view from Pisgah symbolizes the hope and future that God had prepared for His people. Although Moses was not allowed to enter the Promised Land due to his disobedience at Meribah (<a href="/numbers/20-12.htm">Numbers 20:12</a>), God graciously allowed him to see it from Pisgah. This act underscores God's faithfulness to His promises and His mercy towards His servants.<br><br><b>Related Events and Symbolism:</b> <br>The ascent of Moses to Pisgah is a poignant moment in biblical history. It marks the end of the wilderness wanderings and the beginning of a new chapter for the Israelites under Joshua's leadership. Pisgah serves as a reminder of the importance of obedience to God and the consequences of disobedience. It also highlights the theme of divine grace, as Moses is granted a glimpse of the land despite his earlier failings.<br><br><b>Other References:</b> <br>In addition to <a href="/deuteronomy/34.htm">Deuteronomy 34:1</a>, Pisgah is mentioned in <a href="/numbers/21-20.htm">Numbers 21:20</a>, where it is described as a location overlooking the wasteland. The BSB reads: "and from Bamoth to the valley in Moab where the top of Pisgah overlooks the wasteland." This passage situates Pisgah within the broader narrative of Israel's journey and conquest.<br><br>Pisgah is also referenced in <a href="/deuteronomy/3-27.htm">Deuteronomy 3:27</a>, where God instructs Moses: "Go up to the top of Pisgah and look to the west and north and south and east. See the land with your own eyes, for you will not cross this Jordan." This command emphasizes the significance of Pisgah as a place of vision and divine revelation.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>Pisgah remains a symbol of God's promises and the hope of future fulfillment. It is a testament to the faithfulness of God and the importance of trusting in His plans, even when the path is not fully revealed.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Pisgah</span><p>hill; eminence; fortress<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Pisgah</span><p>(<i>section</i> , i.e. <i>peak</i>), (<a href="/numbers/21-20.htm">Numbers 21:20</a>; <a href="/numbers/23-14.htm">23:14</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/3-27.htm">3:27</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/34-1.htm">34:1</a>) a mountain range or district, the same as or a part of, that called the mountains of Abarim.

The spurs and ravines, or the "shoulders" of Pisgah are meant. 'Ashedah is "a pouring out," and 'ashedoth are the slopes of a mountain from which springs gush forth. In <a href="/joshua/10-40.htm">Joshua 10:40</a>; <a href="/joshua/12-8.htm">Joshua 12:8</a>, 'Ashedoth, translated "springs" in the King James Version, is "slopes" in the Revised Version (British and American) (<a href="/deuteronomy/3-17.htm">Deuteronomy 3:17</a> <a href="/joshua/12-3.htm">Joshua 12:3</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-20.htm">Joshua 13:20</a>).

"The top of Pisgah, which looketh down upon the desert" marks a stage in the march of the host of Israel (<a href="/numbers/21-20.htm">Numbers 21:20</a>). Hither Balak brought Balaam to the field of Zophim (<a href="/numbers/23-14.htm">Numbers 23:14</a>). Here Moses obtained his view of the Promised Land, and died. See <a href="../n/nebo.htm">NEBO</a>. Many scholars (e.g. Buhl, GAP, 122; Gray, "Numbers," ICC, 291) take Pisgah as the name applying to the mountain range in which the Moab plateau terminates to the West, the "top" or "head" of Pisgah being the point in which the ridge running out westward from the main mass culminates. The summit commands a wide view, and looks down upon the desert. The identification is made surer by the name Tal'at es-Sufa found here, which seems to correspond with the field of Zophim.<br><br>'Ashdoth is the construct plural of 'ashedhah (singular form not found), from 'eshedh, "foundation," "bottom," "lower part" (slope); compare Assyrian ishdu, "foundation." Some would, derive it from Aramaic 'ashadh, "to pour," whence "fall" or "slope" (OHL, under the word). Ashdoth-pisgah overlooked the Dead Sea from the East (<a href="/deuteronomy/3-17.htm">Deuteronomy 3:17</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/4-49.htm">Deuteronomy 4:49</a> <a href="/joshua/12-3.htm">Joshua 12:3</a>; <a href="/joshua/13-20.htm">Joshua 13:20</a>). There can be no reasonable doubt that Ashdoth-pisgah signifies the steep slopes of the mountain descending into the contiguous valleys.<br><br>It is worthy of note that Septuagint does not uniformly render Pisgah by a proper name, but sometimes by a derivative of laxeuo, "to hew" or "to dress stone" (<a href="/numbers/21-20.htm">Numbers 21:20</a>; <a href="/numbers/23-14.htm">Numbers 23:14</a> <a href="/deuteronomy/3-27.htm">Deuteronomy 3:27</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/4-49.htm">Deuteronomy 4:49</a>). Jerome (Onomasticon, under the word Asedoth) gives abscisum as the Latin equivalent of Fasga. He derives Pisgah from pacagh, which, in new Hebrew, means "to split," "to cut off." This suggests a mountain the steep sides of which give it the appearance of having been "cut out." This description applies perfectly to Jebel Neba as viewed from the Dead Sea.<br><br>W.
