[[Judging]] from the meanings of the two other names, [[Mamre]] being the name of the sacred grove or tree (Jahwist) and synonymous with [[Hebron]] (Priestly Code); and Eschol - a name of a valley (lit. "grape cluster") from which the personal names are derived - it may be expected to explain the name [[Aner]] in a similar way. [[Dillmann]] suggested the name of a range of mountains in that vicinity ( <i> Comm </i> . at the place and Rosen in <i> ZDMG </i> , Xii , 479; Skinner, Genesis, 365). </p> |

| <p> <strong> ANER </strong> . <strong> 1 </strong> . One of the three [[Amorite]] chieftains, the other two being [[Mamre]] and Eshcol, who were in covenant with [[Abraham]] ( [[Genesis]] 14:13; Genesis 14:24 ). As Mamre is an old name for [[Hebron]] ( Genesis 23:2 ), and [[Eshcol]] is the name of a valley not far from Hebron ( Numbers 13:23 ), it is natural to suppose that [[Aner]] also was the name of a locality which gave its name to a Colossians 2 Colossians 2 . ( 1 Chronicles 6:70 only). A town of Manasseh, west of Jordan. The site is doubtful. </p>

| <p> (Heb., Aner', עָנֵר, perhaps a boy), the name of a man and of a place. </p> <p> 1. (Sept. Αὐνάν .) A [[Canaanitish]] chief in the neighborhood of Hebron, who, with two others, [[Eshcol]] and Mamre, joined his forces with those of [[Abraham]] in pursuit of [[Chedorlaomer]] and his allies, who had pillaged [[Sodom]] and carried [[Lot]] away captive (Genesis 14:13; [[Genesis]] 14:24), B.C. cir. 2080. These chiefs did not, however, imitate the disinterested conduct of the patriarch, but retained their portion of the spoil. (See [[Abraham]]). </p> <p> 2. (Sept. Ε᾿νήρ v. r. Ἀνάρ .) A city of Manasseh, given to the [[Levites]] of Kohath's family (1 Chronicles 6:70). [[Gesenius]] supposes this to be the same with the TAANACH (See [[Taanach]]) (q.v.) of Judges 1:27, or TANACH (See [[Tanach]]) (Joshua 21:25). </p> <p> Tristram suggests (Bible Places, p. 205) that "this may, perhaps, be recognised in the modern village of Anim, near Taanuk, where are the remains of an ancient site;" meaning, doubtless, the [[Ann]] marked on the [[Ordnance]] [[Map]] as three and a half miles southwest of Taanuk. Lieut. Conder, on the other hand, regards this place as the representation of Anem, and suggests the modern Ellar as the site of [[Aner]] (Tent Work, 2, 334). [[Neither]] suggestion seems to be called for. </p>
