       * 1Ki 9:17-19
    - Tadmor.
      Tadmor, the Palmyra of the Greeks, as we learn from Josephus,
      a celebrated city of Syria, situated in an oasis, or fertile
      spot of land, surrounded on all sides by a vast sandy desert,
      like an island in the midst of the ocean; according to Pliny,
      337 miles from Seleucia and Tigrim, 203  from the nearest part
      of the Mediterranean, and 176 from Damascus; according to
      Josephus, one day's journey west of the Euphrates, and six
      from Babylon; and according to Ptolemy, in lat. 34ø north, or
      that of Tripoli, and about 4ø more easterly; and it is
      described by Mr. Wood as "situated under a barren ridge of
      hills to the west, and open on the other sides to the desert:"
      "about six days' journey from Aleppo, and as much from
      Damascus, and about twenty leagues west of the Euphrates."
      Palmyra attained the height of its splendor when the royal
      city of Zenobia was conquered by the emperor Aurelian; became
      a Roman colony after the victories of Trajan; and was probably
      reduced to its present miserable state in the wars of the
      Saracens.  Its magnificent ruins, however, scattered over an
      extent of several miles, sufficiently attest its former
      splendor and riches.

      Conjectures respecting the situation of Ophir are endless.
      Grotius conjectures it to be a part of Arabia called Aphar by
      Arrian; while Bochart and others have placed it in the island
      of Ceylon.  Calmet supposes it to have been situated in
      Armenia; but his late editor places it at the head of the
      Indus.  Josephus says that Ophir is the Indies, called the
      Gold country; by which he is supposed to mean Chersonesus
      Aurea, now Malacca, opposite Sumatra; and Le Poivre observes
      that the inhabitants of these places call their gold mines
      {ophirs.}
    
    - took thence.
