 The etymology of the name can be interpreted in several ways.On the one hand, some assume that the village bears the name of the Virgin, "عذراء" in Arabic, while others claim that it is named after the tree of "Ezr", once abundant in the village and its region.On the other hand, it may be of Aramaic origin, "Ezr" meaning the support, the column, or even a herd of sheep or goats.
