Shinar
Shinar (;〔(LDS.org: "Book of Mormon Pronunciation Guide" ) (retrieved 2012-02-25), IPA-ified from «shī´när»〕 Hebrew ''Šinʻar'', Septuagint Σεννααρ ''Sennaar'') is a biblical geographical locale of uncertain boundaries in Mesopotamia. The name may be a corruption of Hebrew ''Shene neharot'' ("two rivers"), Hebrew ''Shene arim'' ("two cities"),〔''The New York Review'', St Joseph's Seminary, 1907, p. 205.〕 or Akkadian ''Shumeru''.
==Hebrew Bible==
The name ''Shinar'' occurs eight times in the Hebrew Bible, in which it refers to Babylonia.〔(''Jewish Encyclopedia'' (1906): Shinar )〕 This location of Shinar is evident from its description as encompassing both Babel (Babylon) (in northern Babylonia) and Erech (Uruk) (in southern Babylonia).〔 In the ''Book of Genesis'' 10:10, the beginning of Nimrod's kingdom is said to have been "Babel (), and Erech (HREF="http://www.kotoba.ne.jp/word/11/Uruk" TITLE="Uruk">Uruk ), and Akkad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar." Verse 11:2 states that Shinar enclosed the plain that became the site of the Tower of Babel after the Great Flood. After the Flood, the sons of Shem, Ham, and Japheth, had stayed first in the highlands of Armenia, and then migrated to Shinar.〔Vuibert, Ancient History, 25.〕
In ''Genesis'' 14:1,9, King Amraphel rules Shinar. Shinar is further mentioned in ''Joshua'' 7:21; ''Isaiah'' 11:11; ''Daniel'' 1:2; and ''Zechariah'' 5:11, as a general synonym for Babylonia.
