SIHOR
Black or turbid, the Nile. In Isa 23:3 and Jer 2:18, this name must necessarily be understood of the Nile. In Jos 13:3 ; 1Ch 13:5, some have understood it of the little river between Egypt and Judah.

Sihor
Sihor, more properly Shichor, the Hebrew proper name for the Nile (Isa 23:3; Jer 2:18). The word means ‘black;’ and a corresponding name or epithet was by the Greeks applied to the same river on account of the black slime left after the subsidence of the inundation.

Sihor
[Si’hor]
This refers to the river Nile. In Jos 13:3 it is “Sihor which is before Egypt.” In Isa 23:3 the produce of the harvest of Egypt was brought to the sea by the river, and from thence was fetched by the Syrian merchants. In Jer 2:18 Israel is warned against seeking the waters of the Nile; that is, trusting in Egypt instead of in God: cf. Jer 2:36. In 1Ch 13:5 it is written SHIHOR, as the south-west boundary of Palestine. Some consider that Jos 13:3 and 1Ch 13:5 refer to the Wady el Arish, which was also called ‘the river of Egypt.’
