Strong's Lexicon
Ebron: Ebron

Original Word: עֶבְרֹן
Part of Speech: Proper Name Location
Transliteration: `Ebron
Pronunciation: ehv-ROHN
Phonetic Spelling: (eb-rone')
Definition: Ebron
Meaning: Ebron

Word Origin: Derived from the root עָבַר (avar), meaning "to pass over" or "to cross."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Ebron" in the Strong's Concordance. However, for Hebron, the corresponding Greek entry is Χεβρών (Chebrōn), Strong's Greek 5518.

Usage: The name "Ebron" is not directly found in the Hebrew Bible as a standalone term. It is likely a variant or a textual error for a more commonly known name or place, such as Hebron. In the context of Hebrew names, it could imply a place or person associated with crossing or transition.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, names often held significant meanings related to geography, familial lineage, or divine encounters. The root עָבַר (avar) is significant in Hebrew culture, often associated with crossing boundaries or transitions, both physically and spiritually. This concept is seen in the crossing of the Jordan River by the Israelites and the Passover event.
