Amana

a-mana, (, ‘amanah): A mountain mentioned in Son 4:8 along with Lebanon, Senir and Hermon. The name probably means the firm, or constant. From the top of Amana is mistranslated by the Septuagint , apo arches psteos. The Amana is most naturally sought in the Anti-Lebanon, near the course of the river Abana, or Amana (see ABANAH). Another possible identification is with Mt. Amanus in the extreme north of Syria.

Amana

Amana, a mountain mentioned in Son 4:8. Some have supposed it to be Mount Amanus in Cilicia, to which the dominion of Solomon is alleged to have extended northward. But the context, with other circumstances, leaves little doubt that this Mount Amana was rather the southern part or summit of Anti-Libanus, and was so called perhaps from containing the sources of the river Amana [ABANA].
