Zohar; father of Ephron the Hittite; also a son of Simeon and a Judahite
Zohar, meaning 'tawny' or 'reddish-white,' is a personal name shared by three individuals. The most prominent is the father of Ephron the Hittite, from whom Abraham purchased the cave of Machpelah (Gen 23:8; 25:9). A second Zohar was a son of Simeon who went down to Egypt with Jacob (Gen 46:10; Exod 6:15). A third appears in a Judahite genealogy in Chronicles (1 Chr 4:7). The LXX renders the name as Saar across all occurrences.
Senses
