The fortress of Zion
The Jebusites
In the story of the land
The Jebusites lived in Jerusalem, called Jebus, until the days of David.
The story
The tribe of Judah could not drive the Jebusites out of Jerusalem.
David captured the fortress of Zion, which became the City of David.
“But the tribe of Judah could not drive out the Jebusites, who lived in the city of Jerusalem, so the Jebusites live there among the people of Judah to this day.”Joshua 15:63 NLT
“David then led his men to Jerusalem to fight against the Jebusites, the original inhabitants of the land who were living there. The Jebusites taunted David, saying, “You’ll never get in here! Even the blind and lame could keep you out!” For the Jebusites thought they were safe.”2 Samuel 5:6 NLT
“But David captured the fortress of Zion, which is now called the City of David.”2 Samuel 5:7 NLT
In the game
The Jebusites are not an enemy village in the game today; their city appears in the story of the Kings.
