	Hermon
		In the Talmud and in the Targums Hermon is designated the "mountain of snow", and the same appellation is used by the old Arab geographers.
		It is sometimes called the Great Hermon to distinguish it from the Small Hermon situated on the east of the plain of Esdrelon, between Thabor and Gelboe, and so named through an erroneous interpretation of Ps.
		Some scholars think it probable that Hermon is the "high mountain" near Caesarea Philippi which was the scene of the Transfiguration (Matthew, xvii, 1; Mark, ix) and which by Luke, ix, 28, is called simply "a mountain".

	The Baal (and the Asherah?) in Seventh-Century Judah p. 1
		The coincidence of polemic against the baals in the 7th-century prophets and the Deuteronomistic History with polemic against the Host in the same prophets and the same history raises the question whether the two were substantially related.
		Yet the seventh-century polemicists regularly refer to baals, not just to a single Baal, and this is even true of Hosea, the lone literary prophet to complain about devotion to the baals in the 8th century.
		It is thus possible that the polemic against the baals in the seventh century is connected with the new assault on the cult of the Host.
