HAZEROTH

(Heb. ḥăṣērôṯ)

A location where the Israelites camped during the Exodus. Here Miriam and Aaron turned against Moses and Miriam was stricken with leprosy (Num. 12:1-16). The exact location is unknown, but Hazeroth was most probably on the eastern side of the Sinai Peninsula near the Gulf of Aqaba (Num. 11:35; 33:17-18; Deut. 1:1). Most locate Hazeroth at ʿAin Khaḍrā/µudra (096814), 48 km. (30 mi.) NE of the traditional Mt. Sinai, Jebel Mûsā. The word means “settlements,” or “enclosures,” and could indicate certain geographical features of the land (i.e., camps or courts).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
