Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root גּוּר (gur), which means "to sojourn" or "to dwell temporarily."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew word גּוּר (gur) in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of a lion cub is typically expressed through context rather than a specific Greek term. However, the Greek word λέων (leon, Strong's Greek 3023) is used for "lion," and any reference to a young lion would be understood through descriptive language rather than a distinct lexical entry. Usage: The term גּוּר is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a young lion, emphasizing its nature as a juvenile member of the species, often highlighting its potential for strength and ferocity. Context: The Hebrew word גּוּר (gur) appears in the context of describing young lions, often used metaphorically to convey strength, potential, and sometimes the threat of danger. In the ancient Near Eastern context, lions were symbols of power and royalty, and their cubs represented the burgeoning strength and future dominance of the pride. The term is used in various passages to illustrate the characteristics of young lions, such as their playfulness, their learning of hunting skills, and their dependence on the adult lions for protection and sustenance. In the Berean Standard Bible, the word is used in passages that depict the natural world and its creatures, often to draw parallels with human experiences or divine attributes.
