same as Azur

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Azzur:

az'-ur (‘azzur, "helpful"):

(1) The father of Hananiah, a false prophet of Gibeon in the days of Zedekiah (Jer 28:1ff).

(2) One of those who, with Nehemiah, sealed the covenant on the return from Babylon (Ne 10:17).

(3) The father of Jaazaniah, "one of" the princes of the people who gave wicked counsel to the city of Jerusalem (Eze 11:1f). the King James Version has "Azur" for (1) and (3), but the Hebrew form of (3) is ‘azur.

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Azzur:

(one who helps) one of the heads of the people who signed the covenant with Nehemiah (Nehemiah 10:17). (B.C. 410) The name is probably that of a family, and in Hebrew is the same as is elsewhere represented by AZUR. SEE [AZUR].
