Nachschlagewerk zu Könige I 9:18

According to the Scriptures (Kings I, 9:18) Palmyra was founded by king Solomon who colonized it with people from various nations. It is also known that Zenobia was herself an offspring of a mixed marriage. For this reason it was an accepted opinion that “Jews would celebrate the day of the destruction of Tadmor.”¹⁾יבמות ט״ז ב׳, ירושלמי תענית פרק ד׳ הלכה ה׳.
