Mamre was an Amorite who lived during the time of Abraham. He was described as an ally or confederate of Abraham, along with his brothers Eshcol and Aner. When Abraham learned that his nephew Lot had been captured by a coalition of kings, he gathered his trained servants and pursued them. Mamre and his brothers joined Abraham in this rescue mission, demonstrating their loyalty and support for Abraham (Gen 14:13).
