<p> | <p> (Β oσόρ ), the Graecized form of the name of a place and of a man. </p> <p> '''1.''' A city, both large and fortified, on the east of Jordan, in the land of [[Gilead]] (Galaad), named with [[Bozrah]] (Bosora), Carnaim, and other places, in 1 [[Maccabees]] 5:26; 1 Maccabees 5:36. It is probably the BEZER (See [[Bezer]]) (q.v.) of Numbers 4:43 (see Grimm, ''Exeg. Handb.'' in loc.). </p> <p> '''2.''' The Aramaic mode of pronouncing the name of BEOR (See Beor) (q.v.), the father of [[Balaam]] ( 2 Peter 2:15), in accordance with the substitution, frequent in Chaldee, of צ for ע (see Gesenius, ''Thes.'' p. 1144). </p> | ||

<p> '''''bō´sor''''' ( Βοσόρ , <i> '''''Bosór''''' </i> ): </p> <p> (1) | <p> '''''bō´sor''''' ( Βοσόρ , <i> '''''Bosór''''' </i> ): </p> <p> (1) A city named among those taken by [[Judas]] Maccabeus "in the land of Gilead" (1 Macc 5:26, 36). From the towns named it is evident that this phrase is elastic, covering territory beyond what is usually called the land of Gilead. Possibly therefore Bosor may be identical with <i> '''''Buṣr el''''' </i> - <i> '''''Ḥarı̄rı̄''''' </i> , in the <i> '''''Luḥf''''' </i> , Southeast of <i> '''''el''''' </i> - <i> '''''Lejā'''''' </i> . </p> <p> (2) In 2 Peter 2:15 the King James Version, the Greek form of Beor (which see). </p> | ||
