a.gur denotes a bird named among other birds in two biblical comparisons and lists.

The attested verses use the noun for a bird: Isaiah 38:14 compares a speaker's chirping to it, while Jeremiah 8:7 includes it among birds that observe the time of their coming.

1. A bird in comparison and enumeration · dominant

   In Isaiah 38:14, the masculine singular absolute form occurs in a comparison with a swallow as the speaker says, “so I chirp”; the APB names the bird in that comparison. In Jeremiah 8:7, the same form is listed with the stork, turtledove, and swallow; the APB renders the clause as birds that “observe the time of their coming.”

   Isaiah 38:14Jeremiah 8:7

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “crane” in both Isaiah 38:14 and Jeremiah 8:7. This rendering is confirmed by the surrounding bird comparisons and list rather than treated as a precise lexical mapping.
