Gur was the ascent or pass near Ibleam where Ahaziah was struck while fleeing Jehu. It is important because it belongs to the geography of dynastic overthrow in the northern kingdom. First appears in 2 Kgs 9:27.1
AI summary: Gur matters because royal collapse in Kings unfolds through actual roads, ascents, and pursuit. The place belongs to the violent route of judgment during Jehu's purge.1
A whelp, a place near Ibleam where Jehu’s servants overtook and mortally wounded king Ahaziah (2 Kings 9:27); an ascent from the plain of Jezreel. 3
