the Hebrews
A member of the people group referred to as the 'Hebrews,' often identifying individuals or groups associated with Abraham and his descendants, especially in contexts of ethnic distinction or social status vis-à-vis non-Israelite peoples. The term is employed in biblical narratives to distinguish these people from surrounding populations, frequently highlighting the outsider or marginal status of Israelites, or their origins as a group that crossed over or came from 'beyond.'
