Not that Hor where Aaron died, Numb. 20. 22. which was Southward, and bordering upon Edom, Numb. 33. 37, 38. and therefore could not be their northern border, but another mountain, and, as it is conceived, the mountain of Libanus, which is elsewhere mentioned as the Northern border of the land, and which, in regard of divers parts or by divers people is called by divers names, as Sirion and Senir, Deut. 3. 9. and Sion, Deut. 4. 48. and Hermon, Ios. 13. 5. and here Hor, which signifies a mountain, and this may be called so by way of eminency. Certain it is, that as Hor here, so Hermon Ios. 13. 5. is joyned with the entrance of Hamath, which makes it probable they are one and the same place.
