He is recognized as an ancestor of several notable biblical figures and is often associated with the origins of the Hebrew people. Eber's lineage is detailed in the genealogies found in the Book of Genesis, and his name is believed to be the root of the term "Hebrew." Genealogy and Biblical References Eber is introduced in the genealogical records of Genesis as a descendant of Shem, one of Noah's three sons. In <a href="/genesis/10-21.htm">Genesis 10:21-25</a>, Eber is listed as a great-grandson of Shem through Arphaxad and Shelah. The passage states: "Sons were also born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth; Shem was the forefather of all the sons of Eber. The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber" (<a href="/genesis/10-21.htm">Genesis 10:21-24</a>). Eber is further mentioned in the genealogical account of <a href="/genesis/11-14.htm">Genesis 11:14-17</a>, which provides additional details about his descendants: "When Shelah was 30 years old, he became the father of Eber. And after he had become the father of Eber, Shelah lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters. When Eber was 34 years old, he became the father of Peleg. And after he had become the father of Peleg, Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters" (<a href="/genesis/11-14.htm">Genesis 11:14-17</a>). Significance of Eber Eber is particularly significant as the father of Peleg, during whose lifetime "the earth was divided" (<a href="/genesis/10-25.htm">Genesis 10:25</a>). This phrase has been interpreted in various ways, including the division of languages at the Tower of Babel or a geographical division of the earth. Eber's other son, Joktan, is also noted in the genealogies, and his descendants are associated with various tribes and regions in the Arabian Peninsula. The name "Eber" is etymologically linked to the term "Hebrew," which is used throughout the Old Testament to describe the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This connection underscores Eber's importance as a patriarchal figure in the lineage leading to the Israelites. Cultural and Theological Context In the broader cultural and theological context, Eber represents a key link in the biblical narrative of God's covenantal promises. As a descendant of Shem, Eber is part of the line through which God chose to work His redemptive plan for humanity. The genealogies that include Eber serve to trace the lineage of the Israelites back to the post-flood world, emphasizing the continuity of God's promises from Noah through to the patriarchs. Eber's place in the genealogies highlights the importance of family lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative. His descendants, particularly through Peleg, are part of the unfolding account of God's chosen people, leading ultimately to the birth of Jesus Christ, who is seen as the fulfillment of God's promises to Abraham and his descendants. Conclusion Eber's role in the biblical genealogies underscores the importance of ancestry and divine promise in the narrative of the Old Testament. As an ancestor of the Hebrews, Eber's legacy is foundational to the identity and history of the Israelite people. His mention in the genealogical records serves as a reminder of the continuity of God's plan and the unfolding of His purposes through successive generations.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Eberone that passes; anger<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Eber(the region beyond). <ol> <li>Son of Salah, and great-grandson of Shem.
