Strong's Lexicon sur: To turn aside, to depart, to remove Original Word: שׂוּר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G654 (apostrephō): To turn away, to remove - G868 (aphiēmi): To send away, to leave, to forgive Usage: The Hebrew verb "sur" primarily means to turn aside, to depart, or to remove. It is often used in the context of turning away from a path, either physically or metaphorically. In the Old Testament, it frequently describes the act of turning away from God or His commandments, as well as the removal of obstacles or enemies. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of turning aside or departing was significant both in physical journeys and spiritual life. The Israelites were often warned against turning aside from God's commandments, which was seen as a departure from the covenant relationship with Him. The physical act of removing or turning away from something was also a common practice in warfare and purification rituals.
