Amana is also the name of a mountain Song of Solomon 4 8 , probably Amanus , or the southern summit of Anti Libanus , at the base of which are the sources of the Abana. Most English translations of the Song of Solomon, beginning with the King James Version , adhere to the transliteration of Amana in verse 4 8. Solomon s bride the Shulamite is implored by the Beloved Solomon to descend with him from the peak of Amana , as well as Mount Senir and Hermon . The descent is safely through the dens of lions and the presence of leopards.
