It is mentioned in the context of the allotment of land to the tribes of Israel. The name itself may imply a sense of enclosure or protection, consistent with its root meaning.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Ether is one of the towns listed in the inheritance of the tribe of Judah. The allocation of land to the tribes of Israel was a significant event in the history of the Israelites, as it represented the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham regarding the land of Canaan. The towns and cities mentioned in these allotments often held strategic, economic, or religious significance for the tribes.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>perhaps from <a href="/hebrew/6280.htm">athar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>perhaps "abundance," a place in Judah<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Ether (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עֶ֫תֶר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> (√ dubious);
