The name “GUR ARYEH”

 

The expression in Hebrew "Gur Aryeh" means "lion cub" or "young lion". In the Book of the Genesis it was used by Jacob (Israel) in his prophecy to his twelve sons, shortly before he died, when he referred to his son Judah.

 

He said: "A cub and a grown lion is Judah. From the prey, my son, you withdrew. He crouched, rested like a lion, and like a lion, who will rouse him?"(Genesis 49: 9).
