Located on the Mediterranean coast in what is now modern-day Lebanon, Zidon was a prominent Phoenician city known for its commerce, craftsmanship, and maritime prowess. The city is frequently mentioned in the Old Testament and holds a notable place in biblical history and prophecy.<br><br><b>Biblical References and Historical Context:</b> <br>Zidon is first mentioned in the Table of Nations in <a href="/genesis/10-15.htm">Genesis 10:15</a>, where it is noted as the firstborn son of Canaan: "Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites" . This establishes Zidon as a Canaanite city, integral to the early post-Flood world.<br><br>The city is renowned for its skilled artisans and craftsmen, particularly in the production of glass and purple dye, which were highly prized in the ancient world. This reputation is reflected in the biblical narrative, where Zidon is often associated with wealth and trade.<br><br><b>Interactions with Israel:</b> <br>Throughout the Old Testament, Zidon is frequently mentioned in relation to Israel. The Israelites were commanded to drive out the Canaanites, including the Sidonians, from the Promised Land (<a href="/judges/1-31.htm">Judges 1:31</a>). However, the Sidonians were not fully expelled, and their influence persisted, often leading Israel into idolatry.<br><br>One of the most notable interactions between Zidon and Israel is through Jezebel, the daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Sidonians. Jezebel married King Ahab of Israel and introduced the worship of Baal, a Sidonian deity, into Israel (<a href="/1_kings/16-31.htm">1 Kings 16:31</a>). This led to significant religious and moral decline in the northern kingdom.<br><br><b>Prophetic Significance:</b> <br>Zidon is the subject of several prophetic pronouncements in the Bible. The prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel all speak of Zidon in their oracles. <a href="/ezekiel/28-22.htm">Ezekiel 28:22-23</a> declares, "This is what the Lord GOD says: 'Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will display My glory within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her. I will send a plague against her and shed blood in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.'" . These prophecies highlight God's judgment against Zidon for its pride and idolatry.<br><br><b>New Testament Mentions:</b> <br>In the New Testament, Zidon is mentioned in the context of Jesus' ministry. Jesus visited the region of Tyre and Sidon, performing miracles and teaching (<a href="/matthew/15-21.htm">Matthew 15:21-28</a>; <a href="/mark/7-24.htm">Mark 7:24-31</a>). The faith of a Syrophoenician woman from this region is notably commended by Jesus, illustrating the reach of His ministry beyond the Jewish people.<br><br>Additionally, Zidon is mentioned in the travels of the Apostle Paul. In <a href="/acts/27-3.htm">Acts 27:3</a>, during Paul's journey to Rome, he is allowed to visit friends in Sidon, indicating the presence of a Christian community or supportive believers in the city.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Influence:</b> <br>Zidon's influence extended beyond its immediate geographical location. As a leading city of the Phoenicians, it played a crucial role in spreading the Phoenician alphabet, which significantly impacted the development of writing systems in the ancient world.<br><br>Religiously, Zidon was a center of Baal worship, which often brought it into conflict with the monotheistic worship of Yahweh in Israel. The city's religious practices and deities are frequently condemned in the biblical narrative as contrary to the worship of the one true God.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>Zidon remains a symbol of both cultural achievement and spiritual apostasy in the biblical narrative. Its interactions with Israel and its role in the broader ancient Near Eastern world provide valuable insights into the historical and religious context of the Bible.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Zidon</span><p>hunting; fishing; venison<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Zidon</span><p>See <a href="../s/sidon.htm">SIDON</a>.

It received its name from the "first-born" of Canaan, the grandson of Noah (<a href="/genesis/10-15.htm">Genesis 10:15</a>, 19). It was the first home of the Phoenicians on the coast of Palestine, and from its extensive commercial relations became a "great" city (<a href="/joshua/11-8.htm">Joshua 11:8</a>; <a href="/joshua/19-28.htm">19:28</a>). It was the mother city of Tyre. It lay within the lot of the tribe of Asher, but was never subdued (<a href="/judges/1-31.htm">Judges 1:31</a>). The Zidonians long oppressed Israel (<a href="/judges/10-12.htm">Judges 10:12</a>). From the time of David its glory began to wane, and Tyre, its "virgin daughter" (<a href="/isaiah/23-12.htm">Isaiah 23:12</a>), rose to its place of pre-eminence. Solomon entered into a matrimonial alliance with the Zidonians, and thus their form of idolatrous worship found a place in the land of Israel (<a href="/1_kings/11-1.htm">1 Kings 11:1</a>, 33). This city was famous for its manufactures and arts, as well as for its commerce (<a href="/1_kings/5-6.htm">1 Kings 5:6</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/22-4.htm">1 Chronicles 22:4</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/27-8.htm">Ezek. 27:8</a>). It is frequently referred to by the prophets (<a href="/isaiah/23-2.htm">Isaiah 23:2</a>, 4, 12; <a href="/jeremiah/25-22.htm">Jeremiah 25:22</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/27-3.htm">27:3</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/47-4.htm">47:4</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/27-8.htm">Ezek. 27:8</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/28-21.htm">28:21</a>, 22; <a href="/ezekiel/32-30.htm">32:30</a>; <a href="/joel/3-4.htm">Joel 3:4</a>). Our Lord visited the "coasts" of Tyre and Zidon = Sidon (q.v.), <a href="/matthew/15-21.htm">Matthew 15:21</a>; <a href="/mark/7-24.htm">Mark 7:24</a>; <a href="/luke/4-26.htm">Luke 4:26</a>; and from this region many came forth to hear him preaching (<a href="/mark/3-8.htm">Mark 3:8</a>; <a href="/luke/6-17.htm">Luke 6:17</a>). From Sidon, at which the ship put in after leaving Caesarea, Paul finally sailed for Rome (<a href="/acts/27-3.htm">Acts 27:3</a>, 4).<p>This city is now a town of 10,000 inhabitants, with remains of walls built in the twelfth century A.D. In 1855, the sarcophagus of Eshmanezer was discovered. From a Phoenician inscription on its lid, it appears that he was a "king of the Sidonians," probably in the third century B.C., and that his mother was a priestess of Ashtoreth, "the goddess of the Sidonians." In this inscription Baal is mentioned as the chief god of the Sidonians. <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">ZIDON; ZIDONIANS</span><p>zi'-don, zi-do'-ni-anz.<br><br>See <a href="../s/sidon.htm">SIDON, SIDONIANS</a>.<p><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/6721.htm"><span class="l">6721.
