Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary


ARBA is named ‘the father of the Anak’ in Jos_14:15 (so read also Jos_21:11, cf. Jos_15:13). This means simply that he was the founder of the city which bore his name; that is Kiriath-arba, later Hebron (wh. see), where was a chief seat of the Anakim.

ar?ba (ארבע, 'arba‛, ?four?): Variously described as ?the greatest man among the Anakim? (Jos_14:15), ?the father of Anak? (Jos_15:13), ?the father of Anok? (Jos_21:11 margin). Thus he seems to have been regarded as the ancestor of the Anakim, and as the most famous hero of that race. He was the reputed founder of the city called after him, on the site of which Hebron was built (Jos_21:11).
