Overview
Kitron appears in prophecies concerning the end times and God's dominion over all nations. The term typically refers to Cyprus and the Mediterranean coastlands, representing the distant reaches of the known world. Biblical prophecies indicate that even these remote regions will ultimately submit to God's authority.
