	Zion from the days of King David till our days. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		As it may be, the term Zion is since the days of King David inseparably linked to Jerusalem; it even became a basic concept of Jewish faith and thought.
		We begin to understand why the word Zion is not yet mentioned in the Torah: it could not be mentioned as an abstract, separate from geo-graphical Jerusalem.
		Zion, to repeat it, should not be confused with an abstract belief, nor was it founded merely for Israel's sake; it is God's gift to man for the sake of his dignity and freedom in the creator's image.
