Why did God send Eber?

| 2. To anchor the lineage of major prophetic bloodlines Eber was sent to father Peleg, establishing the specific generational branch that directly led to the Prophet Abraham and eventually Jesus. |
| 3. To preach monotheism to the arrogant people of 'Ad In closely linked Islamic histories, Eber is identified as the Prophet Hud, who was sent to guide a powerful civilization away from pagan idol worship and back to the one true Creator. |
| 4. To warn a proud civilization of impending divine catastrophe As a prophet to his people, he served as a vital divine witness, warning unrepentant tyrants of an impending, devastating judgment that ultimately wiped them out. |
| 5. To establish the division of the earth's population Eber's lifespan bore witness to the post-Flood fracturing of humanity, notably during the birth of his son Peleg, whose name means division. |
