Ziz was the ascent or pass near En-gedi rising westward from the Dead Sea. It is important because it appears in the route of the invading force confronted in Jehoshaphat's day. First appears in 2 Chr 20:16.1
AI summary: Ziz matters because it gives topographic realism to Judah's moment of crisis under Jehoshaphat. The pass marks the line by which danger approached from the wilderness side, making the later deliverance feel geographically concrete.1
Projecting; a flower, a cleft or pass, probably that near En-gedi, which leads up from the Dead Sea (2 Chr. 20:16) in the direction of Tekoa; now Tell Hasasah. 3
