The meaning of Zair in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)za'-ir (tsa'ir; Zeior): When he invaded Edom, we are told that Joram passed over to Zair and all his chariots with him (II Kings 8:21). In the parallel passage (II Chronicles 21:9), "with his captains" ('im sarayw) takes the place of "to Zair" (tsa'irah), probably a copyist's corruption. The place has not been identified. Some have thought that Mt. Seir is intended; others that it means the town of Zoar. Conder suggested ez-Zuweirah, Southeast of the Dead Sea. If Zoar lay in this direction, it is the way by which an invading army might enter Edom.
