HETH

(Heb. ḥeṯ)

The second son of Canaan (Gen. 10:15 = 1 Chr. 1:13). He was eponymous ancestor of the Hittites (Gen. 23:10), in biblical usage an element of the pre-Israelite population of Canaan rather than a reference to the Anatolian empire. Abraham purchased his burial cave at Machpelah from Hittites (Gen. 23; 25:10; 49:32). Rebekah and Isaac discouraged Jacob from marrying Hittite women (Gen. 27:46), whom they also referred to as “Canaanite” (28:1, 8).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
