"... The only commonly recognized planet name in the Hebrew Bible is set within a polemic against the cult of the Northern Kingdom (Amos 5:25–27) ... Here, Yahweh condemns the cult; its offerings are worthless, even offensive. Yahweh calls for justice and righteousness, citing the precedent of the wilderness experience during which no sacrifices were offered, and promises to drive the people off into exile. The exiles will take with them תוּכִּס and ןוּיִּכּ. The meaning of these two terms has long eluded translators and commentators. The Masoretes were not able to identify the terms and therefore vocalized both terms with the vowels of ץוּקִּשׂ (“abomination, idol”). This uncertainty made its way into the early translations as well. The versions do not treat תוּכִּס as a proper noun at all but as the common noun תַכּוּס, “tent, tabernacle.” Thus, the LXX reads τὴν σκηνὴν, while the Vulgate reads tabernaculum, both indicating תַכּוּס as the Hebrew Vorlage. The Peshitta also follows this interpretation, translating הנכשׁמ, “tent.” The author of the Damascus Document also chooses to read תוּכִּס as תַכּוּס in his interpretation of Amos 5:26. The meaning of ןוּיִּכּ is also uncertain in the versions. Though treating ןוּיִּכּ as a proper name, the LXX’s nonsensical Ραιφαν is clearly a misreading of the Hebrew ..."
