     * A.M. cir. 2135.  B.C. cir. 1869.  Bozrah.
       Bozrah, Bezer, or Bostra, was situated in Arabia Deserta, and
       the eastern part of Edom; and, according to Eusebius, was 24
       miles from Edrei.  It afterwards belonged to Moab, and was
       given by Moses to Reuben, but again reverted to Edom.  It is
       now called Boszra; and is described by Burckhardt as the
       largest town in the Haouran, including its ruins, though only
       inhabited by about twelve or fifteen families.  It is situated
       in the open plain, two hours distant from Aare, and is at
       present the last inhabited place in the south-east extremity
       of the Haouran.  It is of an oval shape, it greatest length
       being from east to west; and its circumference three quarters
       of an hour.
