Bible Person
Meaning: that extends or multiplies the hole; whiteness · Male · 4 cross references
This Pashur entry refers to Pashur the priest who opposes Jeremiah in the temple, not the priestly house already separately overridden. He is remembered for striking the prophet and for receiving a harsh prophetic renaming. First appears in Jer 20:1.1
AI summary: This Pashur matters because the cross references present him as a religious authority who reacts violently against unwelcome prophecy. By arresting and beating Jeremiah, he embodies official resistance to God's word at a critical moment in Judah's decline. Jeremiah's response turns Pashur into a sign of terror and coming judgment. Taken together, the material presents this Pashur as a hostile priest whose treatment of Jeremiah exposes the corruption of Judah's leadership.1
