AGAR
mount Sinai, so called, Gal. iv, 24, 25. But this reading is doubtful, many MSS. having the verse, “for this Sinai is a mountain of Arabia.” Some critics however contend for the reading of the received text, and urge that _Agar_, which signifies “a rocky mountain,” is the Arabic name for _Sinai_.
