It conveys the idea of living in a land that is not one's own, often with a sense of being an outsider or without permanent status. 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 among people who are not their kin.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern culture, the concept of sojourning was significant due to the nomadic lifestyle of many peoples, including the patriarchs of Israel. Being a sojourner often implied vulnerability and reliance 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 their understanding of their relationship with God, who called them to be a distinct people among the nations.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1481.htm">gur</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"sojourning, dwelling," a place in Pal.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Gur (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">גּוּר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> (<em>sojourning, dwelling</em>) <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/9-27.htm">2 Kings 9:27</a> <font class="hebrew2">אשׁר אתיִֿבְלְעָם</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מַעֲלֵהגֿ</font>, otherwise unknown. <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>Gur <p>The same as <a href="/hebrew/1482.htm">guwr</a>;
