Amana:
integrity; truth; a nurse
Amana:
a-ma'-na, ('amanah): A mountain mentioned in So 4:8 along with Lebanon, Senir and Hermon. The name probably means the "firm," or "constant." "From the top of Amana" is mistranslated by the Septuagint apo arches pisteos. The Amana is most naturally sought in the Anti-Lebanon, near the course of the river Abana, or Amana (see ABANAH). Another possible identification is with Mt. Amanus in the extreme north of Syria.
Amana:
(a covenant) apparently a mountain in or near Lebanon (Solomon 4:8). It is commonly assumed that this is the mountain in which the river Abana (2 Kings 5:12) has its source.
