The Aramaic cognate meaning mountain or rock, appearing in Daniel. In the famous vision of Daniel 2, the stone cut without hands strikes the statue and becomes a great tur (mountain) that fills the whole earth — representing God's eternal kingdom.
This Aramaic tur is central to one of Scripture's most important messianic prophecies. The stone that becomes a tur filling the whole earth (Daniel 2:35) is God's kingdom that will shatter all human empires and endure forever. Unlike earthly kingdoms built by human hands, this mountain-kingdom is divinely established — 'cut without hands' — and unstoppable.
