Tyre, Lebanon
In [[Book of Zechariah|Zechariah]] 9:6, "mamzer" is referenced similar to that of the nations of [[Ammon]], [[Moab]], [[Edom]], [[Egypt]], [[Tyre, Lebanon|Tyre]], [[Zidon]], [[Ashkelon]], [[Gaza City|Gaza]], [[Philistia]], etc. From such, [[Karaite Judaism|Karaites]] have come to consider the most logical understanding of the Hebrew to actually refer to a nation of people. Karaites believe that such an understanding fits perfectly into the context of both Deuteronomy 23 and Zechariah 9, and several Medieval rabbinical Jewish sages felt it necessary to debate this topic with medieval Karaite Jewish sages.
