The Hebrew terms calling for consideration here are: "elah" (Gen. xxxv. 4; Judges vi. 11, 19, and elsewhere); "el" (only in the plural form "elim"; Isa. i. 29, lvii. 5, A. V. "idols," R. V. "oaks"; lxi. 3, A. V. "trees"); "elon" (Gen. xii. 6, A. V. "plain"; R. V. "oak"; xiii. 18); "allah" (Josh. xxiv. 26, E. V. "oak"); and "allon" (Gen. xxxv. 8; Isa. ii. 13, xliv. 14, and often E. V. "oak"). All these terms may have originally denoted large, strong trees in general (comp. the Latin robur), comprising both the oak and the terebinth, which are similar in outward appearance. But "elah" (which in Isa. vi. 13 and Hos. iv. 13 is distinguished from "allon") and its cognates "elon" and "elim" are assumed to mean the terebinth, while "allon" (which is repeatedly connected with Bashan [Isa. ii. 13; Ezek. xxvii. 6; Zech. xi. 2], a district famous for its oaks) and "allah" are assumed to denote the oak.
Both the oak and the terebinth offered favorite resorts for religious practises (Isa. i. 29, lvii. 5; Ezek. vi. 13; Hos. iv. 13), and were associated with theophanies (Judges vi. 11; comp. Gen. xii. 6; Judges ix. 37). By reason of their striking appearance and their longevity they served also as topographical landmarks (Gen. xxxv. 8; Judges iv. 11, vi. 11, ix. 6; I Sam. x. 3, xvii. 2). The custom of burial beneath these trees is mentioned (Gen. xxxv.8; I Chron. x. 12). Oak timber was used for the manufacture of idols (Isa. xliv. 14) and for ship-building (Ezek. xxvii. 6). The oak and the terebinth are employed as emblems of strength and durability (Amos ii. 9; Isa. lxi. 3).
According to Tristram, the following three species of oak are at present common in Palestine: (1) the prickly evergreen oak (Quercus pseudo-coccifera), abundant in Gilead; the most famous exemplar of this species is the so-called "Abraham's oak" near. Hebron, measuring 23 feet in girth with a diameter of foliage of about 90 feet (see Abraham's Oak); (2) the Valona oak (Q. Ægilops), common in the north and supposed to represent the "oaks of Bashan"; (3) the Oriental gall-oak (Q. infectoria), on Carmel.
The terebinth (Pistacia Terebinthus) is abundant in the south and southeast. See Forest.

If you are a physicist. Please complete Einstein's work. He studied light and Christ's disciple said God is light. I have seen God on his throne after God sang to me! I believed God was clothed in light, but after reading what Christ disciple said, I believe God is probably light. Einstein proved that light is set apart in the universe by showing the momentum of a train does not effect the light present in the train. I am asking you to define the difference between the holy and the profane and the clean and the unclean with regard to the physics of light and darkness. My guess is unclean light is darkness, but I do not know. Please advance physics and don't betray the truth. The truth does not deny the truth, so found the deepest depths of your understanding on the only human being you should trust, that is the truth, our God's son Christ.
Muhammad didn't know how to read! If he read what Moses wrote in Exodus 4:22, he would not have said "God has no sons" AND if he read that Christ's disciple touched Christ's bored hand and side, he probably would not have said Christ wasn't crucified. I'm giving Muhammad the lying, decieving, tyranical, murderous pedophile the benefit of the doubt I suppose exists that he isn't a pure evil enemy telling the lie that Christ wasn't crucified so he can empower the Devil to stand in the lie and murder Christ again and beat the case, but perhaps He told the lies that Christ was not the only begotten son of God to empower the Devil to stand in the lie and murder Christ! The Devil stands only in the lie and does not abide in the truth. The lies that God has no sons empowers the Devil and his children to murder the sons of God. Exodus 4:22 said Israel is Love's firstborn son! John 3:16 says God has an only begotten son! The name of God written in Hebrew is Love AKA (Y)(J)Ahavah. The first syllable is silent like multiple words in English have a silent syllable. I want to die, I will die, and I am telling you Love is forever and to listen to Love and abide in love forever! Do not care to have a favorable opinion of sinners, rather praise Christ for being responsible, and cheer Christ for overcoming the world!
