1. sense 1 — Memorial site name preserving the location and occasion of Deborah's burial below Bethel in Genesis 35:8. The compound 'oak of weeping' combines arboreal landmark with emotional event, creating topographical memory. Ancient Israel often marked significant burials with trees (cf. Saul under tamarisk in 1 Samuel 31:13). Multilingual transliterations (Allon-Bacuth, Alon-Bakut, Allon-Bachut) preserve the Hebrew components, though meaning ('oak of weeping') makes the name self-explanatory. Such etiological names anchor sacred history in physical landscape. 1×
