Gen 10:21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born.
The word Hebrew is supposed to be derived from Eber (or Heber); it means belonging to Heber (see 10:21).

The meaning of "Hebrew" is typically thought to be "crossing over"...ie crossing over the Euphrates.
