Hebrew the Zeredah. Jeroboam's native place (1 Kings 11:26). The Septuagint has: Sareira, and the Alexandrinus manuscript has: Sarida, and make it a strong town in Mount Ephraim which Jeroboam fortified for Solomon, and where on his return from Egypt he assembled the tribe of Ephraim. If this Septuagint view be rejected, and if it be identified with ZARTHAN, then it lay in that part of Ephraim which was in the Jordan valley.
