Ibn Ezra writes that “ ger” is an expression of disconnection. Advertisement Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch (to Genesis 12:14 and 23:4) notes that the root gimmel-reish yields words with four distinct meanings: “ ger,” “ gur” (fear), and “ megurah” (storage container). The core meaning of all four, he writes, is detachment from one’s roots: A ger has detached himself from his place of origin; a gur is a newly-weaned lion cub detached from its mother which must now fend for itself; gur is fear, as if the very ground on which you were standing was yanked out from underneath you; and “ megurah” (or “ megirah,” closet/drawer in Modern Hebrew) is a silo used for storing harvested grain, i.e., grain that was detached from the ground.
