<p> (Heb. Tser, צֵר '' | <p> (Heb. Tser, צֵר ''Rock;'' Sept. by misapprehension, Τύρος, Vulg. ''Ser),'' one of the fortified towns of Naphtali ( Joshua 19:35), where it is named between Ziddim and Hamnath; but from the absence of the copulative ("and") between this and the preceding name, as well as from the total ("nineteen cities") in Joshua 19:33, it is evidently a part of the preceding name, Ziddim-zer. (See Ziddim). Schwarz remarks ''(Palest.'' page 182) that Zer is mentioned in the [[Jerusalem]] [[Talmud]] ''(Megillah,'' 1) as lying near Ziddim. </p> | ||
