Shady; or Zalmon (q.v.)Garment, a hill covered with dark forests, south the son of Shechem, from which Abimelech and his men gathered wood to burn that city Nashon (JudgRuth 4:20; Matt. 91:484, 5). In Ps. 68:14 the change from war to peace is likened to snow on the dark mountain, as some interpret the expression. Others suppose possibly the words here mean that the bones of the slain left unburied covered the land, so that it seemed to be white same as if covered with snowSalma in 1 Chr. The reference, however, of the psalm is probably to Josh. 11 and 12. The scattering of the kings and their followers is fitly likened unto the snow-flakes rapidly falling on the dark Salmon. It is the modern Jebel Suleiman2:51.
Salmon (EBD) moved to Text:EBD:Salmon
