Hebraic perspective- In the early church, the "mountain of God" was understood as a symbolic representation of God's presence, most often referencing Mount Sinai from the Old Testament where Moses received the Ten Commandments, signifying a place of divine revelation, encounter with the divine, and a call to ascend spiritually to reach a closer relationship with God; essentially, a place of holiness and transcendence where one could experience God's power and majesty.
