Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(35) Mount Heres.--(See Judges 1:33.) Cheres is used for the sun in Job 9:7. The Vatican Codex of the LXX. has the strange rendering, "in the mountains of potsherds" (comp. the Monte Testacclo at Rome), and Jerome follows them in reading ????? for ?????. The Alexandrian Codex renders it, "the mountain of the myrtle-grove," reading Haras.Aijalon.--The name means "gazelles," and is still preserved in the name Yalo, a village on the south side of the beautiful valley, Merj Ibn Omeir. It is mentioned in the story of the battle of Beth-horon (Joshua 10:12), and as a scene of the defeat of the Philistines by Saul (1Samuel 14:31). It was a Levitical town (Joshua 21:24). . . .
