Over time, the term expanded to represent the city of Jerusalem as a whole, the dwelling place of God, and, symbolically, the people of Israel. Zion is often used in prophetic and poetic literature to denote the spiritual and eschatological center of God's kingdom.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Zion holds a central place in Jewish and Christian theology. Historically, it was the location of the Davidic monarchy and the First and Second Temples, making it a focal point of Jewish worship and identity. In the prophetic writings, Zion is depicted as the future site of God's ultimate reign and the gathering place for His people. Theologically, Zion represents God's presence, covenant faithfulness, and the hope of redemption.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/6723.htm">tsiyyah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>dryness, parched ground<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>drought (1), dry country (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">צָיוֺן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>dryness, parched ground</b></font> (on formation see Lag<sup>BN 204</sup>);
