Word Origin: A primitive root

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew root עוּר (ʿûr) in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, concepts of exposure and revelation can be found in Greek words such as ἀποκαλύπτω (apokalyptō • Strong's Greek 601), meaning "to reveal" or "to uncover," which captures a similar thematic essence in the New Testament.

Usage: The verb עוּר (ʿûr) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey the idea of being exposed or laid bare. It is often used in contexts where something is uncovered or revealed, either physically or metaphorically.

Context: The Hebrew root עוּר (ʿûr) appears in various forms throughout the Old Testament, primarily conveying the sense of exposure or bareness. This root is often associated with the physical act of uncovering or revealing something that was previously hidden or covered. In a metaphorical sense, it can also refer to the exposure of one's inner thoughts or intentions.

In the Berean Standard Bible, the usage of עוּר (ʿûr) can be seen in contexts where individuals or objects are laid bare, either through divine intervention or human action. The term may also be used to describe the act of waking or stirring, as in the awakening of a person from sleep or the stirring of emotions or spirits.

The concept of exposure or bareness in the biblical text often carries a deeper theological significance, symbolizing vulnerability, judgment, or the revelation of truth. In prophetic literature, the uncovering of hidden things is frequently associated with divine judgment or the unveiling of God's purposes.

The root עוּר (ʿûr) is thus integral to understanding various biblical narratives where the themes of revelation, judgment, and vulnerability are prominent. It serves as a reminder of the human condition before God, where nothing is hidden from His sight.
