and from Zion

A specific and prominent elevation in Jerusalem, initially referring to the fortified Jebusite stronghold captured by David and thereafter associated with the location of the royal citadel. Over time, the term came to serve as a poetic or symbolic designation for Jerusalem as a whole, and in some texts as a metonym for the Israelite nation or its spiritual center. The term frequently appears in contexts emphasizing the city's religious or national significance, especially as the chosen locus of YHWH's presence.
