Ish.kur (= ‘He of the Mountains’): See Adad.

Ishmael (= ‘El will hear’): Abraham’s son by Hagar, the handmaiden of his wife Sarah, conceived at Sarah’s own suggestion so that Abraham, already in his nineties, should not die without a male heir. When Sarah herself had later a son (Isaac) as a result of divine intervention, the older Ishmael mocked Isaac, and Sarah insisted that Hagar and Ishmael leave Abraham’s household. Under the patriarchal succession rules, Isaac, having been born to Abraham by a wife who was a half-sister, was the Legal heir even though not the Firstborn; but Ishmael too was blessed by God to have numerous offspring, including “twelve chieftains.”
