rock of Rimmon.The rock Rimmon was doubtless a strong place; but it is uncertain where situated.
It is probable however, that it was near, and took its name from, the village of Remmon, mentioned by Eusebius, fifteen miles north from Jerusalem.
It appears that rocks are still resorted to in the East, as places of security; and some of them are even capable of sustaining a siege.
De La Roque says, that "The Grand Seignior, wishing to seize the person of the emir (Fakr-eddin, prince of the Druses,) gave orders to the pacha to take him prisoner:
he accordingly came in search of him, with a new army, in the district of Chouf, which is part of mount Lebanon, wherein is the village of Gesin, and close to it, the rock which served for a retreat to the emir.
It is named in Arabic, Magara Gesin, i.e., the cavern of Gessin, by which name it is famous. The pacha pressed the emir so closely, that this unfortunate prince was obliged to shut himself up in the cleft of a great rock, with a small number of his officers.
The pacha besieged him there several months; and was going to blow up the rock by a mine, when the emir capitulated."
