Kedar @ dark-skinned, the second son of Ishmael Genesis:25:13). It is the name for the nomadic tribes of Arabs, the Bedouins generally Isaiah:21:16Isaiah:42:11Isaiah:60:7 ; Jeremiah:2:10; Ezekiel:27:21), who dwelt in the north-west of Arabia. They lived in black hair-tents (Cant. 1:5). To "dwell in the tents of Kedar" was to be cut off from the worship of the true God Psalms:120:5). The Kedarites suffered at the hands of Nebuchadnezzar Jeremiah:49:28-29).
