HARMON här’ mən (הַהַרְמֹ֖ונָה). The name of a place to which the people of Samaria were to be exiled. It is mentioned only in Amos 4:3. No place with this name is known. The text is obviously corrupt, and ancient VSS and commentators differ on what they think it was originally like. Many emendations in the taxt have been suggested, but none meets the approval of all scholars.
