Dictionary Summary: (correctly Shi’hor) black; dark the name given to the river Nile in [Isa. 23:3](/isa#Isa.23.3); [Jer. 2:18](/jer#Jer.2.18). In [Josh. 13:3](/josh#Josh.13.3) it is probably “the river of Egypt”, i.e., the Wady el-Arish ([1 Chr. 13:5](/1chr#1Chr.13.5)), which flows “before Egypt”, i.e., in a north-easterly direction from Egypt, and enters the sea about 50 miles south-west of Gaza. 2
