Mount Sion in this entry refers to the Hermon-related usage in Deuteronomy rather than to Jerusalem's Zion. It is important because familiar sacred names can occasionally point to very different places in older traditions. First appears in Deut 4:48.1
AI summary: Mount Sion matters here because the biblical map can preserve unexpected older name-uses that later readers may overlook. The record belongs to the northern mountain tradition associated with Hermon.1
Denotes Mount Hermon in Deut. 4:48; called Sirion by the Sidonians, and by the Amorites Shenir (Deut. 3:9). (See HERMON.) 3
