Genesis 14:3
“All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.”
KJV
Read in Genesis 14Meaning
The five kings gather in the Valley of Siddim, setting the location for the coming battle.
Read carefully
The narrator's geographic identification is ancient; modern reconstruction of the exact site remains a separate question.
Reflection
Biblical geography can orient the story without requiring certainty beyond what the text itself provides.
