Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Jeruel, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament.

Usage: Jeruel is used as a proper noun referring to a specific location in the Old Testament.

Context: Jeruel is mentioned in the context of a significant biblical event in 2 Chronicles 20:16. It is the name of a wilderness area where King Jehoshaphat of Judah was instructed by God to position his army in anticipation of a battle against the Moabites, Ammonites, and some of the Meunites. The passage highlights God's guidance and deliverance, as the Israelites were told they would not need to fight in this battle. Instead, they were to stand firm and witness the salvation of the Lord. The wilderness of Jeruel is thus associated with divine intervention and victory without combat. The exact geographical location of Jeruel is not definitively known, but it is believed to be situated near Tekoa, southeast of Jerusalem.
