Haydock's commentary
Torrent. The other part belonged to the Moabites, (Calmet) on the south and east.
Ammon. See chap. ii. 37. The two tribes of Gad and Ruben, occupied the territory lying between the Jeboc and the Arnon, hemmed in by the mountains of Galaad, on the east, and by the Jordan and the most salt sea, and that of Cenereth, on the west. Gad occupied the northern division of this country. (Haydock)
