He explains that the Hebrew letters Ayin, Resh, Bet - the root of "erev" - is chaos. Mixture, disorder. That's why evening is called "erev", because when the sun goes down, vision becomes blurry. The literal meaning is "there was disorder." This goes a long way in explaining the "Arab". When the same letters are crossed over - ordered properly - the letters become eber, the father/root of the Hebrews.

Thank you for your reply but I'm not getting your point! Eber was an ancestor to Abraham. Abraham was Hebrew but neither Jewish nor Arab. Arabs descend from Ishmael. Israelites descend from Jacob. Jews descend from Judah.
What am I missing?
