Smith's Bible Dictionary [1]

Sir'ion. (Breastplate). One of the various names of Mount Hermon, that by which it was known to the Zidonians.  Deuteronomy 3:9. The use of the name in  Psalms 29:6, (slightly altered in the original - Shirion instead of Sirion), is remarkable.

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]

Sirion . The name said to he given by the Zidonians to Mt. Hermon,   Deuteronomy 3:9 . Like Senir , it may originally have been the designation of a particular part of the mountain. Cf. Sion, 1 .

Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]

The Sidonian name for Hermon. (See Hermon .) ( Deuteronomy 3:9;  Psalms 29:6).

Holman Bible Dictionary [4]

 Deuteronomy 3:9Mount Hermon

Easton's Bible Dictionary [5]

 Deuteronomy 3:9 Psalm 29:6

American Tract Society Bible Dictionary [6]

See Hermon .

Morrish Bible Dictionary [7]

See HERMON.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [8]

(Heb. Siryon', ]שַׂרְוֹ , in Deuteronomy, but in Psalms 29 Shiryon ', שַׁרְיוֹ ; Samar'. שרין; Samuel Ver. רב; Sept. Σανιώρ; Vulg. Sarion ), one of the various names of Mount HERMON (See Hermon) (q.v.), that by which it was known to the Zidonians ( Deuteronomy 3:9). The word is almost identical with that (סרין ) which in Hebrew denotes a Breastplate, Or "cuirass;" and Gesenius therefore expresses his belief that it was applied in this sense to the mountain just as the name Thorax (which has the same meaning) was given to a mountain in Magnesia. This is not supported by the Samuel Ver., the rendering in which – Rabban — seems to be equivalent to Jebel esh-Sheik, the ordinary, though not the only modern, name of the mountain.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [9]

sir´i - on ( שׂריון , siryōn  ; Σανιώρ , Saniṓr ): The name of Mt. Hermon among the Phoenicians (  Deuteronomy 3:9 ). It is given as "Shirion" in  Psalm 29:6 (Hebrew "breastplate" or "body armor"). Here it is named with Lebanon. Sirion therefore probably did not denote a particular part of the Hermon Range, as did Senir, but may have been suggested by the conformation of the range itself, as seen from the heights above the Phoenician coast.
