Senses in use

  1. Place name in personal and geographic location · dominant

    Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In 1 Kings 11:26 the APB renders Jeroboam as being “from Zeredah”; in 2 Chronicles 4:17 it places the casting site “between Succoth and Zeredah” in the plain of the Jordan.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Zeredah” in both verses, once after “from” and once in the location phrase “between Succoth and Zeredah.” The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses show a geographic use.
