Usage: The verb זוּר (zur) is used in various contexts in the Hebrew Bible, often conveying the idea of turning aside from a path, being foreign or strange, or engaging in profane or adulterous behavior. It is used both literally and metaphorically to describe actions or states that deviate from what is considered proper or holy. Context: • The root זוּר (zur) appears in several forms throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, often with a negative connotation. It is used to describe actions that deviate from the expected norm, such as turning aside from a path or engaging in behavior that is considered foreign or profane. • In a religious context, זוּר can refer to the act of idolatry or the worship of foreign gods, which is seen as a form of spiritual adultery. This is evident in passages where Israel is warned against turning aside to follow other deities. • The term is also used in a social context to describe individuals who are foreigners or strangers, emphasizing their difference from the native population. • In a moral context, זוּר can describe adulterous behavior, highlighting the breach of covenantal fidelity. • Examples from the Berean Standard Bible (BSB) include: • Proverbs 2:16: "It will rescue you from the forbidden woman, from the stranger with seductive words." • Hosea 5:7: "They have dealt treacherously against the LORD, for they have borne illegitimate children. Now the New Moon will devour them along with their land."
