Sion:
noise; tumult
Sion:
si'-un (si'on; Seon):
(1) A name given to Mt. Hermon in De 4:48. The name may mean "protuberance" or "peak," and may have denoted the lofty snow-covered horn of the mountain as seen from the South. It may, however, be a scribal error for Sirion, the name by which the mountain was known to the Zidonians. Syriac takes it in this sense, which, however, may be a correction of the Hebrew. It is possible that this name, like Senir, may have applied to some distinct part of the Hermon Range.
(2) Mt. Sion.
See ZION
Sion:
(lofty) Mount.
(1.) One of the various names of Mount Hermon. Deuteronomy 4:48 only.
(2.) The Greek form of the Hebrew name Zion, the famous mount of the temple (1 Maccabees 4:37; 4:60; 5:54; 6:48; 6:62; 7:33; 10:11; 14:27; Hebrews 12:22; Revelation 14:1). SEE [JERUSALEM].
