Text Appearing Before Image:
seyes closed on his son, and opened again inheaven. When the people of Israel saw Moses andEleazar return alone, and were told thatAaron was dead, they mourned thirty days. Mount Hor is a lonely peak, seen at agreat distance from the desert, and consti-tutes one of the landmarks by which theArab guides his way. On its summit is awhite building called the tomb of Aaron;Mahometans and Christians reverence italike, and the sepulchre of the High Priestis safe from the ravages even of the Arab ofthe desert. A landmark in the bleak sce-nery, within sight of the desolate city ofEdom and its pillared rocks, overlooking the Dead Sea, it is a fit place for the tomb of6* 66 SACRED MOUNTAINS. Aaron, and stands consecrated forever. Animperishable testimonial of the truth of theBible—a stern witness of the fulfilment ofprophecy—a cursed city and a cursed moun-tain on either side—it arrests the travellerseye from afar, and fills him with awe andfear as it silently and perpetually speaks ofGod.
