<p> (Heb., Aner', | <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> | ||
