    Brief Summary: The lands requested by the Reuvnites - Ataroth,...CHESHBON (Nu32-03) were Moabite lands (Nu21-06)

Verse Nu32-03 discussing the lands requested by the Reuvenites and Gaddites states Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Sebam, and Nebo, and Beon, Rashi notes that the underlined words, Cheshbon references verses Nu21-06 discussing Moab. Hence the Rashi comment As can be seen (from the underlined words) the lands requested by the Reuvenites and Gaddites in Nu32-03 were originally Moabite lands (Nu21-06)
