Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew word רְדָן (Vedan), as it is a specific proper noun referring to a location mentioned only in the Old Testament.

Usage: The term "Vedan" appears in the context of a list of trading partners in the book of Ezekiel.

Context: • Vedan is mentioned in the book of Ezekiel as part of a list of regions and cities involved in trade with the city of Tyre. The specific reference is found in Ezekiel 27:19, where it is listed among the trading partners that supplied goods to Tyre. The exact location of Vedan is uncertain, and it is not mentioned elsewhere in the Bible. Some scholars suggest that it may have been a region known for its trade in iron or other goods, possibly located in Arabia or near the region of Dedan. The mention of Vedan in Ezekiel highlights the extensive trade networks of the ancient Near East and the wealth and influence of Tyre as a major trading hub.
