In the New Testament, Heber (Hebrew spelling עבר) is found once in Luke, referring to Eber of the Old Testament.
The Islamic prophet Hud (`Abir) was also called Heber.
According to some British traditions, Heber was the name of a people descending from Magog's first son Baath who were supposed to have occupied the Iberian peninsula and Ireland (Hibernia) prior to arriving at their final destination in the Hebrides, leaving their name in each location.
