Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root סוּר (sur), meaning "to turn aside" or "to depart." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew proper noun סוּר (Sur), as it is a specific geographical name unique to the Hebrew text. However, Greek translations of the Hebrew Bible, such as the Septuagint, may render the location names differently based on transliteration or translation practices. Usage: The term "Sur" is used in the context of geographical locations within the biblical narrative. It is mentioned in relation to the journeys and events of biblical figures. Context: • Sur is a location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, often identified with a region or place that holds significance in the narrative of the Israelites. The name Sur is derived from the Hebrew root סוּר, which means "to turn aside" or "to depart," suggesting a place of separation or boundary. • In the biblical context, Sur is frequently associated with the wilderness or desert areas, serving as a geographical marker in the journeys of the Israelites. It is mentioned in the context of the travels of the patriarchs and the Exodus narrative. • The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) references Sur in passages that describe the movements of key biblical figures, highlighting its role as a landmark or point of reference in their journeys. For example, in the account of Hagar's flight from Sarah, the "Angel of the LORD" finds her by a spring on the way to Sur (Genesis 16:7 BSB). • Sur's significance extends beyond its geographical implications, as it often symbolizes a place of transition or divine encounter. The wilderness of Sur is depicted as a place where individuals encounter God or experience pivotal moments in their spiritual journey.
