Zion. Zion is a hill north of the Davidic city of Jerusalem. It is not important because of its size, but because it is the location of the temple. Jerusalem as a whole is sometimes called Zion. Earthly Zion was a token of the heavenly Zion. Much of the symbolism of the temple pointed to heavenly realities.
