Akhebor
of Achbor
Proper name referring to multiple individuals in the Hebrew Bible: (1) An Edomite (Idumaean) leader (Genesis 36:38–39; 1 Chronicles 1:49–50), (2) a Judahite official under King Josiah (2 Kings 22:12, 14; 2 Chronicles 34:20), and (3) the father of Baal-hanan, another Edomite ruler. The name itself parallels the common noun for 'mouse' in Hebrew (עַכְבָּר), but in these contexts, it serves as a theophoric or personal name rather than as a designation of the animal.
