Sin

 
City in Egypt; the LXX has Σάϊς, and the Vulgate (as in the margin), Pelusium. Ezekiel calls it “the strength of Egypt” (Ezek. 30:15-1615And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No. 16And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily. (Ezekiel 30:15‑16)). It is supposed to be identified with the modern Tineh, where a few ruins are found. It is close to the Pelusiac mouth of the Nile, about 31° 4' N, 32° 28' E.
