title: Ar (city)
text: Ar is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible several times as a city of ancient Moab. While the exact location is unknown, it is likely to have been in the southern part of the Arnon Valley, which is the present day Wadi Mujib gorge in Jordan. The city was one of Moab's most prominent, being listed by the prophet Isaiah in his denunciation of the Moabite nation. Matthew Poole suggested that "the city was seated in an island in the middle of the river". The Bible speaks of Ar as being captured by the Amor
