Commentary for Ezekiel 39:16

וְגַ֥ם שֶׁם־עִ֛יר הֲמוֹנָ֖ה וְטִהֲר֥וּ הָאָֽרֶץ׃ (ס)

And Hamonah shall also be the name of a city. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

Rashi on Ezekiel

And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah And also the city whose name is “the city stirring with numerous people,” that is, the wicked city, the masses of its inhabitants will be buried there.

Rashi on Ezekiel

Hamonah without a “mappiq hey” since the final “hey” serves as an adjective, for הֲמוֹנָה is like הוֹמִיָה, stirring.
