It is used in the context of physical fire, such as that used for warmth, cooking, or sacrifice. It can also symbolize divine presence, judgment, or purification. In some contexts, "ur" is associated with the light of God's guidance or revelation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, fire was a central element in daily life, used for cooking, warmth, and religious rituals. It was also a symbol of God's presence, as seen in the burning bush (Exodus 3:2) and the pillar of fire that guided the Israelites by night (Exodus 13:21). Fire was often associated with God's holiness and judgment, as well as His ability to purify and refine.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/215.htm">or</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a flame<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>fire (4), light (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I. <font class="hebrew2">אוּר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>flame</b></font>. <font class="hebrew2">לְכוּ בְאוּר אֶשְּׁכֶם</font> <em>walk in the flame of your fire</em> <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/50-11.htm">Isaiah 50:11</a>, & so fire itself, whose light & flame were seen <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/44-16.htm">Isaiah 44:16</a>; <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/47-14.htm">Isaiah 47:14</a> — exile Isaiah + <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/31-9.htm">Isaiah 31:9</a> & <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/5-2.htm">Ezekiel 5:2</a> (Co <font class="hebrew2">אשׁ</font>). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>fire, light <p>From <a href="/hebrew/215.htm">'owr</a>; flame; hence (in the plural) the East (as being the region of light) -- fire, light.
