Who this is

Mount Tabor is a distinctive, dome-shaped peak rising from the Jezreel Valley on the border of Zebulun and Issachar. Deborah summoned Barak and Israel's forces there before their victory over Sisera's army, and Gideon later avenged his brothers' deaths at the hands of Midianite kings near the same mountain. The psalmist pairs Tabor with Hermon as poetic emblems of God's creation, and Hosea and Jeremiah both invoke it in oracles of judgment. A separate Levitical town of the same name belonged to Zebulun.
