Commentaries (view it on a map)

ALMA 4:8 [6:7]: And went over upon the east of the river Sidon, into the valley of Gideon, there having been a city built which was called the city of Gideon, which was in the valley that was called Gideon, being called after the man who was slain by the hand of Nehor with the sword.

Commentary: This verse references the places of Gideon, a ridge between Gideon and Zarahemla, the river Sidon, and the valley of Gideon. The person traveling in this verse is Alma. He left Zarahemla to go to Gideon. The valley of Gideon is on the east side of the river Sidon. Valleys have ridges on either side of a river. The river in the valley Gideon would not be the river Sidon, so there is another river that is in the valley of Gideon that empties into the river Sidon. The phrase 'went over' means Alma went over some ridge between the city of Zarahemla and the valley of Gideon. This verse also implies that the land of Zarahemla is on the west of the river Sidon.
