Mount Hor

And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron at Mount Hor, on the boundary of the land of Edom..."Take Aaron and Eleazer his son and bring them up on Mount Hor; and strip Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazer his son; and Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and shall die there." Moses did as the Lord had commanded. They went up Mount Hor in sight of the whole community... and Aaron died there on top of the mountain. (Numbers 20:23-28)
