-Hagar.(her name means 'flight'; she was Abraham's mistress and Abraham's main partner Sarai {Sarah's} handmaid}): Sarah.gave Hagar to Abraham as a secondary wife so they could have a child, as Sarah couldn't have children at this time:.Genesis 16:1-10.

Sarah did have a child later:.Genesis 17:15-20. And, when she did, she became bitchy:.Genesis 21:9,10. 

When she was about to become a mother she fled from the cruelty of her mistress, intending apparently to return to her relatives in Egypt, through the desert of Shur, which lay part way between.

Wearied and worn she had reached the place she distinguished by the name of Beer-lahai-roi.(meaning 'the well of the visible Creator'), where the angel of the Lord appeared to her.

In obedience to the heavenly visitor Hagar returned to the tent of Abraham, where her son Ishmael was born and where she remained.(Genesis 16:16).till after the birth of Isaac.(Isaac was Sarah's child), the space of fourteen years.

Sarah after this began to vent her dissatisfaction both on Hagar and her child. Ishmael's conduct was insulting to Sarah and she insisted that he and his mother should be dismissed. 

This was accordingly done, although with reluctance on the part of Abraham:.Genesis 21:14-16. They wandered out into the wilderness, where Ishmael, exhausted with his journey and faint from thirst, seemed about to die. Hagar "lifted up her voice and wept" and the angel of the Lord as before, appeared unto her and she was comforted and delivered out of her distresses:.Genesis 21:17-20.

Ishmael afterwards established himself in the wilderness of Paran, where he married an Egyptian:.Genesis 21:21.

-Hammurabi.(also spelt Khammurabi and aka Amphrael, king of Shinar, reigned B.C.E. 1945-1902).sixth and best-known ruler of the 1st Amorite.(Genesis 15:16).dynasty of Babylonia, approximately B.C.E. 20th century or about 2000 years before Emmanuel the Christ's time. Hammurabi was contemporary with Abraham.

The king of Shinar's.(Hammurabi).original domain had to do with the inhabitants of the Euphrates Valley area, called then Mesopotamia. Inhabitants here are generally spoken of as Sumerians.

Amphrael/Khammurabi/Hammurabi instituted a legal.code, eventually being called the Code of Hammurabi, some 400 years before the Mosaic Law. It's one of the first sets of written laws regarding conduct for individuals and society and involves protection against injustices of the rich and powerful, obviously an issue right back there at almost the beginning of man on Earth. The code shows the kind of man Hammurabi was and how he ruled.

-Hebron: was one of the most ancient cities of Canaan, being built seven years before Tanis, the capital of Lower Egypt:.Numbers 13:22. It was anciently called Kirjath-arba, after Arba, ancestor of the Anakim and founder of the city of Hebron. Hebron was a favorite residence of the patriarchs.Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Map.

-Heshbon: an ancient city of the Amorites, twenty miles east of the mouth of the Jordan. It was chief city of Sihon king of the Amorites. It was taken and occupied by the Israelites under Moses:.Numbers 21:21-26.

Heshbon's ruins are still called 'Hesban' and cover the sides of a hill seven miles north of Medeba.(map). There are reservoirs in this district, which are probably the 'fishpools' referred to in.Song of Solomon 7:1-6. On a hill to the West, el-Kurmiyeh, is a collection of dolmens and stone circles (Musil, Arabia Petrea, I, 383 ff), probably used as free energy structures.
