A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Siron, Land of

by George Reynolds

SIRON, LAND OF. The home of Isabel, the harlot. Its meaning is the land of the deserters or apostates. It was situated at the extreme edge of the Nephite possessions, and on the borders of the Lamanites, beyond, that is south or southeast of Antionum, the headquarters of the Zoramites. In this remote land, far from the Nephite capital, outside the reach of the rigors of the law of Moses, the enticing Isabel could carry on her vile calling with the greatest safety and impunity.
