Person in Scripture

Hur

Hur goes up the hill with Moses and Aaron while Joshua fights Amalek. When Moses' hands grow heavy, Aaron and Hur support them, one on each side, keeping them steady until sunset. Later, before Moses ascends the mountain, he tells the elders that Aaron and Hur remain with them and that anyone with a matter should go to those two. Other Exodus passages name a Hur in Bezalel's ancestry: Bezalel is the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of Judah.
