John Calvin Commentary Deuteronomy 10:6

"(And the children of Israel journeyed from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah. There Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son ministered in the priest`s office in his stead." — Deuteronomy 10:6 (ASV)

And the children of Israel. Since it is not the design of Moses to specify the stations here, as he does in Numbers 33, but only to mark the place in which Aaron died, I have therefore seen fit to connect what we read here with the preceding narrative. In the death of Aaron, they might recognize the punishment of their own rebellion. But that Eleazar should be substituted in his place was a sign of the paternal grace of God, who did not allow them to be deprived of this blessing. This succession, too, was to be a perpetual rule for the future, so that the sacerdotal dignity, according to God’s prescription, should remain in that family.

He here specifies the names of certain places, which he omits in the passage cited above. For he there states that the Israelites went straight from Kadesh-barnea to Mount Hor and then made them pass on to Zalmonah and Punon. This might have been because the places had different names, or because they did not pitch their camp in Gudgodah or Jotbath, although the advantages of the spot might have invited them to stop in a well-watered valley, for it is called “the land of torrents,” through which an abundance of water flowed.

I will not elaborate on what every reader will readily observe: that in the discourse of Moses, the order of the history is inverted. For he says that the Levites were separated from the rest of the people after the death of Aaron.
