Mount Hor is a name used in the Hebrew Bible for two distinct mountains. One borders the land of Edom, south of the Dead Sea, while the other lies by the Mediterranean Sea at Israel's northern border. The Mount Hor near Edom is significant in the Israelite tradition as the place where Aaron, the high priest and brother of Moses, died.
