This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the term "harar" within the biblical context, highlighting its significance in both historical and theological dimensions.

Usage: The word "harar" is used throughout the Hebrew Bible to denote physical mountains, which often serve as significant locations for events, divine encounters, and symbolic representations of strength, stability, and challenges.

Context: • The term "harar" appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often highlighting the geographical and theological significance of mountains. Mountains are frequently depicted as places of divine revelation and covenant, such as Mount Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments (Exodus 19:20). They are also seen as places of refuge and strategic military advantage, as in the case of David's escape to the mountains during his flight from Saul (1 Samuel 23:14).
• In the poetic and prophetic literature, mountains symbolize permanence and the majesty of God's creation. For instance, in Psalm 125:2, the mountains surrounding Jerusalem are likened to the LORD's protection over His people: "As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people both now and forevermore."
• Theologically, mountains can represent obstacles or challenges that require faith to overcome, as seen in Jesus' teaching in the New Testament about faith moving mountains (Matthew 17:20).
• The imagery of mountains is also used eschatologically, as in Isaiah 2:2, where the mountain of the LORD's house is prophesied to be established as the highest of the mountains, symbolizing the ultimate reign and authority of God.
