Mount Hor
Mount Hor (Hebrew: , ''Hor Ha-Har'') is the name given in the Old Testament to two distinct mountains. One borders the land of Edom (on the eastern shore of the Dead Sea in modern-day Jordan), and the other is by the Mediterranean Sea at the Northern border of the Land of Israel.
==Mount Hor in Edom==
This Mount Hor is situated "in the edge of the land of Edom" (Numbers 20:23 and 33:37) and was the scene of Aaron's divestiture, death and burial.〔Numbers 20:22-28〕 Since Josephus' time it has been identified with the ''Jebel Nebi Harun'' ("Mountain of the Prophet Aaron" in Arabic), a twin-peaked mountain 4780 feet above sea-level (6072 feet above the Dead Sea) in the Edomite Mountains on the east side of the Jordan-Arabah valley. On the summit is a shrine, the Tomb of Aaron, said to cover the grave of Aaron.
Some investigators at the turn of the 20th century dissented from this identification: for example, Henry Clay Trumbull preferred the ''Jebel Madara'', a peak northwest of 'Ain Kadis.
