the range of hills which rises abruptly in the wilderness of et-Tih ("the wandering"), mentioned De 1:19-20, "that great and terrible wilderness."
"We then set out from Horeb and went across all the great and terrible wilderness you saw on the way to the hill country of the Amorites, just as the Lord our God had commanded us. When we reached Kadesh-barnea, I said to you: You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the Lord our God is giving us.
