One of my favorite Old Testament prophets is Enoch, but most of the information we know about him, including his ministry, prophecies, and City of Zion, comes from Latter-day revelation (see Bible Dictionary: Enoch). I especially enjoy reading how Enoch's City, because of the righteousness of the people, was taken into Heaven to be with God.
"And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them.

"And Enoch continued his preaching in righteousness unto the people of God. And it came to pass in his days, that he built a city that was called the City of Holiness, even Zion....

"And it came to pass that the Lord showed unto Enoch all the inhabitants of the earth; and he beheld, and lo, Zion, in process of time, was taken up into heaven. And the Lord said unto Enoch: Behold mine abode forever" (Moses 7:18-19,21).
