mount Hermon

7 cross references · Modern-day map available

This Mount Hermon entry focuses on Hermon specifically as a mountain boundary in the far north, distinct from broader poetic or regional references under the shorter Hermon name. It is important because conquest and land-allotment texts repeatedly use the mountain to define the northern edge of Israel's world. First appears in Deut 3:8.1

AI summary: Whereas the main Hermon tradition can include poetic and symbolic references, this entry stays close to the mountain as a geographic marker. The verses cluster around conquest summaries, territorial limits, and northern tribal horizons, showing how often Mount Hermon functioned as a fixed point for describing the land. That gives this record a more sharply topographic emphasis than the broader Hermon page. The cross references present Mount Hermon as a northern boundary mountain anchoring Israel's map.1
