Heber

Meaning: one that passes; anger · Male · 1 cross reference

This Heber entry refers to a Judahite family figure in 1 Chronicles 4, not to the Benjaminite or Gadite figures of the same name. He belongs to the smaller clan material preserving Judah's internal branches. First appears in 1 Chr 4:18.1

AI summary: This Heber matters because his single cross reference contributes one more name to the fine-grained genealogical framework of Judah. Even without a narrative role, the entry helps sustain the continuity and specificity of the tribal record. Taken together, the material presents this Heber as a family figure in Judah's preserved lineage.1
