e.ver marks a location or position relative to a boundary, including territory beyond it and an opposing edge or face.

The term most often identifies a territory or place in relation to a major boundary, especially the Jordan or a river; it also marks opposed positions across a divide and particular edges, faces, or surfaces of objects.

1. Region located beyond or along a boundary · dominant

   Singular construct forms occur in clauses that locate land or people relative to the Jordan, a river, or the sea. In Deuteronomy 3:25 the APB renders Moses' requested destination as land "beyond the Jordan," while Joshua 12:1 describes conquered land east of that boundary and 2 Samuel 10:16 places the Arameans beyond the River.

2. One of two opposed locations · common

   Singular absolute forms mark positions set against another position across a passage or separation. In 1 Samuel 14:4 the APB describes a rocky crag on each of two positions, and in 1 Samuel 14:40 Saul and Jonathan stand on the other position from the people; Deuteronomy 30:13 similarly speaks of crossing to the other position of the sea.

3. Edge, face, or surface of an object · occasional

   Construct forms occur in descriptions of crafted objects and moving figures. In Exodus 28:26 the APB places rings on the breastpiece's edge toward the ephod, Exodus 32:15 describes tablets inscribed on both surfaces, and Ezekiel 1:12 describes each figure moving in the direction of its face.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the relevant location clauses with expressions such as "beyond the Jordan," "beside the Jordan," "other side," and "both sides." These are renderings of whole clauses for the individual Hebrew term.
