Gur, the Going Up to
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
Resource Toolbox
i.e., ascent to Gur or "the lion's whelp", where Ahaziah was killed while fleeing from Jehu (2 Kings 9:27). It was "by Ibleam" (now Bel'amek), between Jezreel and "the garden house" (Beth-hag-gan, now Jenin). Now Kefr Kud. The similarity of the Hebrew letter Daleth ( ד ) and the Hebrew letter Resh ( ר ) led to their frequent interchange.
