ATS Bible Dictionary
Elealeh

A town of the Amorites, near Heshbon their capital, assigned to the tribe of Reuben, Numbers 32:3,37, and long afterwards threatened as a city of Moab, Isaiah 15:4; 16:9; Jeremiah 48:34. Its ruins, now El- Aal, are a mile or more northeast of Heshban.

Easton's Bible Dictionary
God has ascended, a place in the pastoral country east of Jordan, in the tribe of Reuben (Numbers 32:3, 37). It is not again mentioned till the time of Isaiah (15:4; 16:9) and Jeremiah (48:34). It is now an extensive ruin called el-A'al, about one mile north-east of Heshbon.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
ELEALEH

e-le-a'-le ('el`aleh, "God has ascended"):

Lay in the country taken from Sihon and within the lot given to Reuben (Numbers 32:3, 17 f). "Their names being changed" seems to apply to all the towns mentioned. There is no indication of the other names. Elealeh is noticed with Heshbon in the oracles against Moab in Isaiah 15:4; Isaiah 16:9 Jeremiah 48:34. Eusebius (Onomasticon) locates it one Roman mile from Heshbon. It is represented today by el'Al, a mound crowned with ruins, about a mile North of Chesban.
