<p> ''''' sûr ''''' (Codex Vaticanus Ἀσσούρ , <i> ''''' Assoúr ''''' </i> , [[Codex]] Alexandrinus Σούρ , <i> ''''' Soúr ''''' </i> ): Those that dwelt in Sur are mentioned along with the inhabitants of Sidon, Tyre, Ocina, etc., as dreading the approach of [[Holofernes]] and the [[Assyrian]] any ( [[Judith]] 2:28 ). The names run from North to South, and Sur immediately follows Tyre (modern <i> ''''' Sūr ''''' </i> ), with which, therefore, it can hardly be identified. No probable identification has been suggested. See also [[Jerusalem]] . </p>

<p> ( '''''Σούρ''''' ; Vulg. omits), one of the places on the sea-coast of Palestine, which are named as having been disturbed at the approach of [[Holofernes]] with the [[Assyrian]] army (Judith 2, 28). It cannot be Tyre, the modern ''Sur,'' since that is mentioned immediately before. Some have suggested ''Dor,'' others a place named ''Sora,'' mentioned by Stephanus of [[Byzantium]] as ins Phoenicia, Which they would identify with Athlt; others, again, Surafend. But none of these are satisfactory. The apocryphal character of the book itself makes us suspicious of the accuracy of the name. (See [[Judith]]). </p>
