A-Z: General definitions: Dead Sea
Definition
Lake at the southern end of the Jordan valley. It derives its name from the very heavy deposits of salt in the water which allow no plant life.
The river Jordan flows from above Lake Tiberius (the Sea of Galilee) down to the Dead Sea. John the Baptist baptised Jesus in the river Jordan.
