==References == | <p> ( '''''Σούρ''''' ; Vulg. omits), one of the places on the sea-coast of Palestine, which are named as having been disturbed at the approach of [[Holofernes]] with the [[Assyrian]] army (Judith 2, 28). It cannot be Tyre, the modern ''Sur,'' since that is mentioned immediately before. Some have suggested ''Dor,'' others a place named ''Sora,'' mentioned by Stephanus of [[Byzantium]] as ins Phoenicia, Which they would identify with Athlt; others, again, Surafend. But none of these are satisfactory. The apocryphal character of the book itself makes us suspicious of the accuracy of the name. (See [[Judith]]). </p> | ||
