פירוש על מלכים ב 23:13
Rashi on II Kings
Of Har Hamashchis. [I.e.,] the Mount of Olives, which is known as the Mount of Oil. But because its name is mentioned in reference to idolatry, [Scripture] changed its name to a derogatory expression.14I.e., from הר המשחה [=Mount of Oil] to הר המשחית [=Mount of Destroyer].
