- the name:
- "Then the Amalekitesª came down,ª° and the Canaanitesª which dweltª° in that¹ hill,ª and smoteª° them, and discomfitedª° them, [even] unto¹ Hormah.ª" {Num 14:45} + "And the Amorites,ª which dweltª° in that¹ mountain,ª came outª° againstª° you, and chasedª° you, as¹ beesª do,ª° and destroyedª° you in Seir,ª [even] unto¹ Hormah.ª" {Deu 1:44} + "And to [them] which¹ [were] in Hormah,ª and to [them] which¹ [were] in Chorashan,ª and to [them] which¹ [were] in Athach,ª" {1Sm 30:30} Hormah, that is, utter destruction. Chormah, rather a devoting to destruction, so LXX Αναθεμα, and Tremellius, devotio sive anathema.
