Places
Sharon in Isaiah 33
SHAIR-un
This place shows up in Isaiah 33:9: “The land mourns and languishes. Lebanon is confounded and withers away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Isaiah 33:9
“The land mourns and languishes. Lebanon is confounded and withers away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.”
