And he smote them from Aroer
A city which lay near the river Arnon, on the borders of Moab, ( Deuteronomy 3:12 )
even till thou come to Minnith;
which seems to have been a place famous for wheat, ( Ezekiel 27:17 ) so David de Pomis F1 says it was a place where the best wheat grew. Jerom says F2 in his time was shown a village called Mannith, four miles from Esbus (or Heshbon), as you go to Philadelphia. Josephus F3 calls it Maniathe, and it is thought by some to be the Anitha of Ptolemy F4, which he places in Arabia Petraea even "twenty cities"; which he pursued them through and took:
and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter;
or, Abel Ceramim. Jerom says F5 in his time was seen a village called Abela, planted with vineyards, seven miles from Philadelphia:
thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel;
so that they were not able to oppress them any more.
