18 So Aʹbram continued to live in tents.* Later on he came and dwelt among the big trees of Mamʹre,+ which are in Heʹbron;+ and there he proceeded to build an altar to Jehovah.+
13 After that a man who had escaped came and told Aʹbram the Hebrew.*+ He was then tabernacling among the big trees of Mamʹre the Amʹor·ite,+ the brother of Eshʹcol and brother of Aʹner;+ and they were confederates* of Aʹbram.
