'Hill' in the Bible

When Moses sent them to investigate the land of Canaan, he told them, "Go up through the Negev, and then go up into the hill country

The Amalekites live in the land of the Negev; the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the hill country; and the Canaanites live by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan."

And early in the morning they went up to the crest of the hill country, saying, "Here we are, and we will go up to the place that the Lord commanded, for we have sinned."

But they dared to go up to the crest of the hill, although neither the ark of the covenant of the Lord nor Moses departed from the camp.

So the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country swooped down and attacked them as far as Hormah.
