Usage: Shemeber is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Shemeber is mentioned in the Book of Genesis as the king of Zeboiim, one of the cities of the plain, which was involved in the battle of the kings. This battle is described in Genesis 14, where Shemeber is listed among the kings who joined forces against Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and his allies. The narrative details a coalition of four kings, including Shemeber, who fought against the five kings of the cities of the plain, including Sodom and Gomorrah. The conflict is significant as it sets the stage for the rescue of Lot by Abram (later Abraham). The name Shemeber, while not extensively detailed in the biblical text, is part of the broader narrative that illustrates the geopolitical dynamics of the region during the patriarchal period.
