2 Samuel 15:28

See, I will tarry in the plain of the wilderness, until there come word from you to certify me.

I will tarry in the plain of the wilderness х bª`arbowt (H6160) hamidbaar (H4057)] - in the plains (Arabahs) of the wilderness. Stanley (Smith's 'Dictionary,' article 'David') renders it, 'at the ford or bridge' [as if the original word were 'ªbaaraah; Kethibh]. But the Qeri' will not permit his meaning.
