Excerpt from The Ghebers of Hebron: An Introduction to the Gheborim in the Lands of the Sethim, the Moloch Worship, the Jews as Brahmans, the Shepherds of Canaan, the Amorites, Kheta, and Azarielites, the Sun-Temples on the High Places, the Pyramid and Temple of Khufu, the Mithramysteries The records of the Jews contain the literature of the fire worship. We trace this people back to a most interesting source the city of the Achabara then occupied by a race of mighty warriors called the Kheta (betha) who defended them selves later against Ramses the Great. It stood in the moun tains west of the Dead Sea where Chehron, one of the oldest cities of Judah (now called Hebron), stands. The word Acbar means 'mighty, ' and the Egyptians knew the Achabara by that name, for at an early period they never entirely conquered them. From the word Cabar or Gabar (also meaning mighty comes the word Geber or Gheber which (as the Kheta of Khe bron were fireworshippers) was in time used to denote the an cient people who were, like all the Old Canaanites, very much controlled by that form of religion - Genesis, xxn. 7; Dent.
