It conveys the idea of living in a land that is not one's own, often with the connotation of being a stranger or outsider. This term is frequently used in the context of the Israelites' experiences in foreign lands, as well as in the broader context of individuals or groups living outside their native country.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern culture, sojourning was a common experience due to trade, famine, warfare, or other circumstances that necessitated travel and temporary residence in foreign lands. The concept of being a "sojourner" carried with it a sense of vulnerability and dependence on the hospitality and protection of the host community. The Israelites' identity as sojourners is a recurring theme in the Hebrew Bible, reflecting their historical experiences in Egypt and other lands, and serving as a reminder of their reliance on God's provision and protection.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1481b.htm">gur</a><br><span
