Lexical notes

"How beautiful upon the mountains," Heb. mah-nahvoo 'al-heharim. Literally the reading is, "How / beautiful are they (ie., the feet of the messengers) / upon / the mountains." The Hebrew word here for "beautiful" occurs only three times in the Old Testament, and only twice pronounced nahvoo (the other occurrence is Song of Solomon 1:10). The verb (nun - alef - heh) is thought to mean "be comely, be fitting." This passage is probably the source of the city name Nauvoo.
