Joshua 20:8
And on the other side Jordan by Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness upon the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh. (Joshua 20:8)
Ramoth.
 From ra’am, “to be high or exalted.” Ra’moth is the plural noun, meaning “heights,” figuratively meaning “sublime or unattainable things.” For the probable location see on ch. 13:26 (Ramoth-mizpeh).
Bezer.
This name is derived from the verb baṣar, “to restrain,” “to enclose,” hence, “to fortify.” The noun indicates “a fortified place,” that is, “a fortress.” The location of Bezer is not definitely known. Some have identified it with the modern Umm el-‘Amad, northwest of Medebah.
Golan.
from gôlan, “circuit.” Its location thought to be somewhat east of the Sea of Chinnereth (Galilee); possibly Saḥen el-Jōlân.
