I thought this was interesting in light of what the Hebrew word Bamah means and how it is pronounced."Bamah -- The Hebrew word for “high place.” Another instance of the perversion of God's laws. When the Israelites first entered Canaan they were to set up the “tabernacle” on a “high place,” and upon this and upon no other they were to worship Yahweh (1Sa_9:12 ff; 1Ki_3:4). But the Israelites followed the custom of the country, and set up idol-worship on every high hill, and the word “high place” (“Bannah,” plural “Bamoth”) became a by-word (compare “Bamoth-Baal,” Jos_13:17). “Bamoth” occurs on the Moabitic stone, which records the erection of high places in honor of Chemosh. The name “Bamah” was thus a brand of the divine displeasure, and a memorial of the people's guilt. {quote From Barnes}
Not sure what an 'O' would do to the meaning?
Take what ever you get out of this…
I just thought it was interesting…
