Context: Rithmah is a station in the wilderness journey of the Israelites, as recorded in the Book of Numbers. It is one of the encampments listed in the itinerary of the Israelites during their 40 years of wandering in the desert. The name Rithmah is thought to be derived from the presence of broom or juniper plants in the area, which were common in the desert regions. The specific location of Rithmah is not definitively known today, but it is traditionally associated with the wilderness of Paran. In Numbers 33:18-19 (BSB), it is mentioned: "They set out from Hazeroth and camped at Rithmah. They set out from Rithmah and camped at Rimmon-perez." This passage highlights Rithmah as a transitional campsite during the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the Promised Land.
