Mt. Hermon (הר חרמון)

Mount Hermon has seasonal snow which covers all three of its peaks for most of the year in winter and spring. Melt water from the snow-covered mountain's western and southern bases seeps into the rock channels and pores, feeding springs at the base of the mountain, which form streams and rivers. These merge to become the Jordan River. Additionally, the runoff facilitates fertile plant life below the snow line, where vineyards and pine, oak, and poplar trees are abundant.

The springs, and the mountain itself, are much contested by the nations of the area for the use of the water. It is important that the government that controls the mountain, as well as the springs below, realize their responsibility to guard against deforestation and pollution.

Mount Hermon is called the "gray-haired mountain," or the "mountain of snow." It is also called "the eyes of the nation" in Israel because its altitude makes it Israel's primary strategic early warning system

It is true the fallen angels swore that what they were about to do to the human race would be mutual.They took the earthly created women and mated with them that created the Nephilim as written in Genesis 6:1-6.Unfortunately the Bible did not write down the exact location.Why would anyone want to know in the first place?I can imagine just by being there, in the surrounding area, already has a great spiritual meaning in itself.
