Synthesis
The claim that Mount Zion is the "navel of the earth":
Supported by:
- Repeated assertions in modern teaching (video series)
- Conceptual overlap between "middle" and "navel"
Not directly supported by:
- Explicit Enoch text
- Explicit Biblical statement linking Zion to "navel"
Conclusion
The claim is:
- Theologically and symbolically plausible
- Textually indirect
- Dependent on interpretive layering
