R.H. Allen, Starnames, Their Lore and Meaning, [1990], 17 {Argo Navis / α Carinae} Some of the Rabbis have asserted -- and Delitsch in modern times -- that this star, and not Orion, was the H.asil of the Bible, arguing from the similarity in sound of that word to the Suhail of Arabia, and from other reasons fully explained, although not accepted, by Ideler; while, coincidently, there are able commentators who have thought that the Kesilim of Isaiah xiii, 10, now translated "Constellations", means the brightest stars, which often are those now referred to in use of the word Suhail. Delitzsch, in his commentary on the Book of Job, quotes much, from Wetzstein and others, of this identity of Canopus with H.asil, illustrating it with stellar stories and proverbs of the present-day Arabs of the Hauran, the patriarch's traditional home.
