Strong's Lexicon Cheber: Heber Original Word: חֶבֶר Word Origin: Derived from the root חָבַר (chabar), meaning "to join" or "to associate." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Cheber, as it is a proper noun specific to Hebrew genealogies. However, the concept of association or joining can be related to Greek words like κοινωνία (koinonia), meaning "fellowship" or "communion." Usage: The name "Cheber" or "Heber" is used in the Bible to refer to several individuals. It generally means "association" or "company," reflecting the idea of joining or being part of a group. In the context of biblical genealogies and narratives, it often signifies a person who is part of a larger family or tribal association. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often given to reflect characteristics, familial connections, or divine purposes. The name Cheber, meaning "association," may indicate a person who was seen as a unifier or someone who played a significant role in the community or family structure. The genealogical records in the Bible often served to establish identity, heritage, and the fulfillment of divine promises through specific lineages.
