    Dictionary Summary: A strongly-fortified place 12 miles from Pelusium, in the north of Egypt ([Jer. 44:1](/jer#Jer.44.1); [46:14](/jer#Jer.46.14)). This word is rendered “tower” in [Ezek. 29:10](/ezek#Ezek.29.10), but the margin correctly retains the name Migdol, “from Migdol to Syene;” i.e., from Migdol in the north to Syene in the south, in other words, the whole of Egypt. 2
