Brown-Driver-Briggs שִׁיאוֺן proper name, of a location in Issachar, Joshua 19:19, Σιωνα, Σηω. שִׁיבָה see ישׁב II. שִׁיבָה see שׁוב Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁאָה (sha'ah), meaning "to lay waste" or "to desolate."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the Hebrew proper noun שִׁיאוֹן (Shijon) in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as it is a specific place name unique to the Hebrew text. However, Greek terms related to desolation or ruin, such as ἐρημία (erēmia, Strong's Greek 2048), may conceptually align with the thematic elements of the name Shijon. Usage: The term שִׁיאוֹן (Shijon) is used in the context of geographical locations within the biblical narrative, specifically as a place name. Context: Shijon is mentioned in the context of the territorial boundaries described in the Old Testament. It is identified as a landmark within the delineation of tribal lands. The name itself suggests a place that may have been characterized by desolation or ruin, possibly due to historical events or natural conditions that rendered it uninhabitable or barren. The exact location of Shijon is not definitively known today, and it is not frequently mentioned in biblical texts, which adds to the challenge of pinpointing its historical and geographical significance. The name reflects the common biblical theme of transformation and judgment, where places and peoples are often described in terms of their spiritual and physical states.
