Salmon

Concise Bible Dictionary:

When the Almighty scattered kings in some place (probably Palestine) it is compared to “snow in Salmon” (Psa. 68:14¹⁴When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon. (Psalm 68:14)—an obscure passage). It is perhaps the same as Mount ZALMON in Judges 9:48,⁴⁸And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done. (Judges 9:48) the Hebrew being the same, a wooded mountain near Shechem.
