'Cities' in the Bible

Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the valley, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.

and He overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.

Thus it came about, when God destroyed the cities of the valley, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.

As they journeyed, there was a great terror upon the cities which were around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.

Then let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and store up the grain for food in the cities under Pharaoh’s authority, and let them guard it.

So he gathered all the food of these seven years which occurred in the land of Egypt and placed the food in the cities; he placed in every city the food from its own surrounding fields.

As for the people, he removed them to the cities from one end of Egypt’s border to the other.
