One of the stations of the Israelites (Num. 33:18-19¹⁸And they departed from Hazeroth, and pitched in Rithmah. ¹⁹And they departed from Rithmah, and pitched at Rimmon-parez. (Numbers 33:18‑19)). By comparing this passage with Numbers 11:35³⁵And the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth. (Numbers 11:35) and Numbers 12:16¹⁶And afterward the people removed from Hazeroth, and pitched in the wilderness of Paran. (Numbers 12:16) it appears that Rithmah is in the wilderness of Paran, and the passages refer to the first visit of the Israelites to that locality. See WANDERINGS OF THE ISRAELITES.
