Commentary on Numbers 20:22

Theological / Devotional

Mount Hor. This site has not been definitely located to date. Four different mountains are claimed by different scholars as the Mt. Hor where Aaron died. Jehel Nebi Harun, that is, the mount of the prophet Aaron, has a mosque on the supposed site of the prophet’s tomb, and is visited by devout pilgrims. This location contradicts the Bible account, which demands a mountain outside the borders of Edom (v. 23; ch. 33:37), whereas Jebel Nebi Harun is well within the borders of the country, not far from the ruined city of Petra.
