burying <06912> [buried.]

traveled <05265> [removed.]
Rameses <07486> [Rameses.]
This appears to have been the capital of the land of Goshen, and the rendezvous of the Israelites. It is placed by Jerome in the extremity of Egypt, in the Arsenoitic nome.
traveled <05265> [departed.]
Succoth <05523> [Succoth.]
Supposed to be the Such‘ mentioned by Pliny and the Scenas Mandrorum, in the Antonine Itinerary. The Editor of Calmet places it at Birket el Hadji, or "the Pilgrims' pool," a few miles east of Cairo.
Etham <0864> [Etham.]
This was evidently situated towards the north point of the Red sea. Calmet supposes it to be the same as Buthus or Butham, mentioned by Herodotus, who places it in Arabia, on the frontiers of Egypt.
traveled <05265> [they removed.]
Baal-Zephon <01189> [Baal-zephon.]
Calmet supposes this to be the Clysma of the Greeks, and the Kolzum of the Arabians. His learned Editor thinks the true situation of Baal-zephon was some miles more northerly than the present Suez.
traveled <05265> [departed.]
Etham <0864> [Etham.]
Called Shur in Exodus; but Dr. Shaw says that Shur is a particular district of the wilderness of Etham.

traveled <05265> [they removed.]
Kibroth Hattaavah <06914> [Kibroth-hattaavah.]
That is, the graves of lust.
traveled <05265> [they departed.]
Rithmah <07575> [Rithmah.]
Rithmah was a place in the wilderness of Paran, near Kadesh Barnea; probably so called from the great number of juniper trees, as the name signifies, growing in that district.
Rimmon-perez <07428> [Rimmon-parez.]
Probably the same as Rimmon, a city of Judah and Simeon, Jos 15:32, 19:7.
Libnah <03841> [Libnah.]
[Laban. Rissah.]
This is supposed, apparently with good reason, by the Editor of Calmet, to be the same with the present El Arish, a village three quarters of a league from the Mediterranean, and the last stage in Syria, on the road to Egypt.
