The Remnant

Hebrew הֶ֥רָה, harah. Singular with the directional “ה”. The Remnant escape toward the mountain. Jesus speaks of this in his prophecies, “then let them that are in Judaea [Judah] flee toward the mountains” Matt. 24:16. Luke specifically speaks of “her”:

Then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains; and those in her midst, let them depart out; and those in the countries, let them not enter into her.” Luk. 21:21 Berean Literal Bible
