It is associated with several individuals: • Cheber, the Kenite: Mentioned in Judges 4:11, Cheber is identified as a Kenite who separated from the other Kenites, the descendants of Hobab, Moses' father-in-law. He pitched his tent near the oak in Zaanannim, near Kedesh. This separation is significant in the narrative of Deborah and Barak, as it sets the stage for Jael, Cheber's wife, to play a pivotal role in the defeat of Sisera, the commander of the Canaanite army. • Cheber, the son of Beriah: In 1 Chronicles 7:31-32, Cheber is listed as a descendant of Asher, one of the tribes of Israel. He is the son of Beriah and the father of Japhlet, Shomer, and Hotham. This genealogical record highlights the lineage and tribal affiliations within the nation of Israel. • The name Cheber, meaning "association" or "fellowship," reflects the cultural and familial connections that are central to the narratives in which it appears. The individuals bearing this name are often linked to significant events or lineages, underscoring the importance of family and tribal identity in the biblical context.
