The whole BDB entry

n.pr. Amon, an Egyptian god Na 3:8 Je 46:25, comp. by Greeks with Zeus (Herod. ii, 42; Diod i. 13), Ἀμμῶν. He was originally the local deity of Thebes (= נֹא, called נֹא אָמוֹן Na 3:8, cf. א׳ מִנֹּא Je 46:25), but subsequently became the supreme god of the Egyptian Pantheon, the successor of the sun-god Ra and so-called Amon Ra. He was the secret god, who hid himself and was difficult to find (Amon = concealment, hidden); v. Rawl. Hist. Anc. Egypt, i, 322 Ebers. RiHWB. Je 46:25 Spiegelberg Randglossen, 43 ff. reads נֹא אָמוֹן (as Na 3:8) for אָמוֹן נֹא, and finds in both a Thebes in the Delta. (ii. iii. אָמוֹן v. p. 54.)
