Numbers 33:50
48 They set out from the mountains of Abarim and camped on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.
49 And there on the plains of Moab they camped by the Jordan, from Beth-jeshimoth to Abel-shittim.
On the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, the LORD said to Moses,
51 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
52 you must drive out before you all the inhabitants of the land, destroy all their carved images and cast idols, and demolish all their high places.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
