The place
The Ascent of Ziz is mentioned in the Bible as the location where King Jehoshaphat of Judah faced the invading armies of Moab, Ammon, and Mount Seir (2Ch.20:16). As Jehoshaphat and his people sought the Lord and praised Him, the Lord set ambushes against the invading armies, causing them to destroy one another (2Ch.20:22-23). The Ascent of Ziz was likely a pass or route leading up from the Dead Sea region towards Tekoa and the hill country of Judah. Its exact location is uncertain.
