+'Heyeberi' (also pronounced 'hebri' or 'habiru') refers to the "Hebrews" - the main character group of the Hebrew texts.
+For the sake of consistently, we should really list this word under [[yeberi]], ignoring the 'he' prefix as we usually do (for the usual good reasons discussed at [[affixes]]). This page has been included with the prefix in order to highlight the etymological evolution through yebiri --> heyeberi --> Hebrew
+Dropping the prefix makes it more clear that the 'yeberi' take their name from [[yeber]] (aka Eber), a character from Genesis who was Abraham's great-great-great-great-grandfather.
+Please see [[yeberi]] for further information.
