✪ ". . . the Hebrew word ‘Zion’ means a ‘sign’ and cannot therefore be a static location. Zion refers not so much to a precise location, but to the name of the city of Jerusalem as the religious and political capital of Israel throughout the history of Israel. Later, Zion became a symbol of God's Chosen People (see for example Isa. 62)." Ref-0051, vol. 3 no. 4, Summer 2001
✪ "The phrase ‘out of Zion’ in Romans 11:26 has been seized upon because the Isaiah passage reads, ‘to Zion’ The LXX has it ‘for Zion.’ Paul uses neither the Hebrew nor the LXX. Where did Paul get this phrase? That answer is that Paul is not attempting direct quotation. The reference to turning away ungodliness is not in the Isaiah passage either. Paul is appealing rather to the general doctrine. The Scriptures speak of Christ as both coming to Zion and coming from Zion (cf. Ps. 14:7; 20:2; 53:67; 110:2; 128:5; 134:3; 135:21; Isa. 2:3; Joel 3:16; Amos 1:2)." Ref-0081, p. 191.
