Hagarenes, Hagarites:
(named after Hagar) a people dwelling to the east of Palestine, with whom the tribes of Reuben made war in the time of Saul (1 Chronicles 5:10, 18-20). The same people, as confederate against Israel, are mentioned in Psalm 83:6. It is generally believed that they were named after Hagar, and that the important town and district of Hejer, on the borders of the Persian Gulf, represent them.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
