Places
Zion in 1 Kings 22
ZY-un
This place shows up in 1 Kings 22:48: “Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they didn’t go; for the ships wrecked at Ezion Geber.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
1 Kings 22:48
“Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they didn’t go; for the ships wrecked at Ezion Geber.”
