Wilderness site where fire from the Lord broke out among the Israelites after they complained about their hardships, burning the outskirts of the camp until Moses interceded and the fire died down (Num. 11:1-3). Its name, meaning "burning," commemorates the event, and Moses recalls it alongside the nearby Kibroth-hattaavah in his closing review of Israel's wilderness rebellions (Deut. 9:22).
