Aner, 1

A´ner, Esh´col, and Mam´re, three Canaanitish chiefs in the neighborhood of Hebron who joined their forces with those of Abraham in pursuit of Chedorlaomer and his allies, who had pillaged Sodom and carried Lot away captive (Genesis 14:24). These chiefs did not, however, imitate the disinterested conduct of the patriarch, but retained their portion of the spoil [ABRAHAM].

Aner, 2

Aner, a city of Manasseh, given to the Levites of Kohath's family (1 Chronicles 6:70).
