Sin (Pelusium)—an eastern frontier city of Egypt, identified with ancient Pelusium
Sin is identified with Pelusium, an important city on Egypt's eastern frontier, near the Mediterranean coast. The name appears in Ezekiel's oracles against Egypt (30:15-16), where God promises to pour out His wrath on Sin, Egypt's stronghold. The Hebrew name is likely a transliteration of an Egyptian word meaning 'clay' or 'mud,' which correlates with the Greek name Pelusium (from 'pēlos' meaning mud or dirt). The city was strategically significant as Egypt's eastern gateway. In Ezekiel 30:16, some manuscripts and versions read 'Syene' instead, though Pelusium fits the context of Egypt's northern defenses.

1. sense 1 — The proper name of an Egyptian border city, identified with Pelusium on the eastern Delta frontier, appearing in Ezekiel 30:15-16 in oracles of judgment against Egypt. God declares He will 'pour out [His] wrath on Sin' as Egypt's stronghold. The location guarded Egypt's approach from Asia and was militarily strategic. The multilingual glosses maintain the transliteration 'Sin,' recognizing it as a specific geographical location—Egypt's eastern fortress city where divine judgment would fall as part of the comprehensive destruction of Egyptian power. 2×
