Translations: Oreb, Horeb
From the root: ΩΡΗΒ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: This is a proper noun, referring to a specific person or place. In the provided context, it refers to Oreb, a Midianite prince, and Horeb, another name for Mount Sinai. The apostrophe-like character (keraia) at the end of 'ΩΡΗΒʼ' indicates that it is being used as a numeral, representing the number 800. However, in the provided context, it is clearly a proper noun, so the keraia is likely a scribal mark or a variant spelling rather than indicating a numerical value. It is most commonly known as the name of a Midianite prince mentioned in the Book of Judges, and also as an alternative name for Mount Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments.
