1 Kings 20:23. And the servants of the king of Syria said unto him, Their gods are god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we; but let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.
It was a current heathenish idea, that there was one god for a mountain,
another for a stream, another for a plain; and these men imagined that the glorious Jehovah was a local deity like their images were supposed to be.
