Hamor:
he-ass, a Hivite from whom Jacob purchased the plot of ground in which Joseph was afterwards buried (Gen 33:19). He is called "Emmor" in Act 7:16. His son Shechem founded the city of that name which Simeon and Levi destroyed because of his crime in the matter of Dinah, Jacob's daughter (Gen 34:20). Hamor and Shechem were also slain (ver. 26).
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.
