The meaning of Zur in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
zur (tsur "rock"):
(1) A prince or chief (Numbers 25:15; Numbers 31:8) of Midian, father of the woman slain with Zimri by Phinehas. Joshua 13:21 describes him as one of the princes of Sihon, but the reference there is regarded as a gloss.
(2) An inhabitant of Gibeon (I Chronicles 8:30; I Chronicles 9:36), to be connected probably, according to Curtis, with "Zeror" of I Samuel 9:1.
