According to Genesis 10, which sets forth the lineage of Noah, Eber (עֵבֶר) was the great–great–grandson of Noah, and father of Peleg and Joktan. He is an ancestor of the Israelites and the distant ancestor of Abraham (wikipedia.org/wiki/Eber). Wouldn't it be something if someone could find a genealogical connection back to the Eber of biblical times? RIE
