Zion
Zion ((ヘブライ語:צִיּוֹן) Ṣiyyôn), also transliterated Sion, Syon, Tzion or Tsion, is a place name often used as a synonym for Jerusalem.〔〔 The word is first found in which dates from c.630–540 BCE according to modern scholarship. It commonly referred to a specific mountain near Jerusalem (''Mount Zion''), on which stood a Jebusite fortress of the same name that was conquered by David and was named the City of David.
The term ''Tzion'' came to designate the area of Jerusalem where the fortress stood, and later became a metonym for Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, the city of Jerusalem and "the World to Come", the Jewish understanding of the hereafter.
In Kabbalah the more esoteric reference is made to Tzion being the spiritual point from which reality emerges, located in the Holy of Holies of the First, Second and Third Temple.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Parshas HaShavua )〕
==Etymology==
The etymology of the word ''Zion'' (''ṣiyôn'') is uncertain. Mentioned in the Bible in the Book of Samuel (2 Samuel 5:7) as the name of the Jebusite fortress conquered by King David, its origin likely predates the Israelites.〔〔 If Semitic, it may be derived from the Hebrew root ''ṣiyyôn'' ("castle") or the Hebrew ''ṣiyya'' ("dry land," Jeremiah 51:43). A non-Semitic relationship to the Hurrian word ''šeya'' ("river" or "brook") has also been suggested.〔
