Are Mount Moriah and Mount Zion the same mountain?

Answer 1They are two 'mounts' next to each other.Mt Zion was a Jebusite stronghold captured by David (1Kings 8:1; 1Chronicles 11:5) (2Samuel 5:6, 7, 9) which became his royal residence (Psalm 2:6). When the Ark of the Covenant was transferred there it became especially holy to God. (2Samuel 6:17).Mt Moriah was north of Zion, where the Temple was built during Solomon's reign. Eventually the term "Holy Mountain" and "ZION" came to refer to the combined area of Zion and Moriah, Jerusalem itself.(Isaiah 66:20).[Comment moved to Discussion Section.]Answer 2Yes and No.Historically, Mount Zion was used interchangeably with Mount Moriah. Both referred to the Temple Mount/Foundation Stone where the Dome of the Rock Shrine currently sits. It is in this location that the Jebusites had their fortress, David had his palace in close proximity, and Solomon built the Temple.About 2000 years ago, Judeans started referring to a second mountain, to the southwest of the Temple Mount as Mount Zion. This mountain is currently located to the south of the Armenian Quarter and is still called Mount Zion. They stopped using the term "Mount Zion" to refer to the Temple Mount and instead used Mount Moriah to exclusively refer to that.
