Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root גּוּר (gur), which generally means "to sojourn" or "to dwell temporarily."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew proper noun גּוּר (Gur), as it is a specific geographical name unique to the Hebrew text. However, geographical names in the Hebrew Bible often do not have direct Greek equivalents unless they are mentioned in the Septuagint or the New Testament, which is not the case for Gur.

Usage: The term "Gur" is used in the context of a geographical location, specifically a place associated with the story of King David.

Context: Gur is mentioned in the context of the narrative involving King David's flight from his son Absalom. It is specifically referenced in 2 Samuel 13:34, where it is described as "Gur near Ibleam." This location is significant as it marks the place where Absalom's forces pursued David's men. The exact location of Gur is not definitively known, but it is believed to be in the region of Ibleam, which is situated in the territory of Manasseh, near the border of the tribe of Issachar. The mention of Gur in the biblical text highlights the strategic movements during the conflict between David and Absalom, illustrating the challenges David faced during this period of his reign.
