Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from חֶבְרוֹן (Hebron), a significant city in the hill country of Judah.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the term "Chebronite" as it is a specific Hebrew designation related to the city of Hebron and its descendants. However, the Greek term for Hebron, Ἑβρών (Hebrōn), can be found in the Septuagint and other Greek texts referring to the city itself. Usage: The term "Chebronite" is used to denote a person from Hebron, specifically referring to a descendant of Hebron, the son of Kohath, from the tribe of Levi. Context: The term "Chebronite" appears in the context of the genealogies and tribal divisions of the Levites. Hebron, from which the term is derived, is a notable city in the biblical narrative, often associated with the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The city of Hebron was given to Caleb as an inheritance (Joshua 14:13-14) and later became a Levitical city (Joshua 21:11-13). The Chebronites, therefore, are linked to the Levitical lineage, specifically through Hebron, the son of Kohath. This connection underscores the importance of Hebron as a center of religious and ancestral heritage within the tribe of Levi. The Chebronites would have been responsible for various religious duties and services associated with the tabernacle and later the temple, as was customary for the Levites.
