These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited the land ,.... "Before", as the Targum of Jonathan adds, that is, before it was inhabited by Esau and his posterity, and called Edom, and had from him the name of Seir; but the Horites dwelt here before him, even in Abraham's time, Genesis 14:6 ; and who were so called from their dwelling under ground in holes and caves, with which the further part of the land of Edom abounded, and are the same the Greeks call Trogloditae: Jarchi says,... read more

And the children of Lotan were Hori and Heman ,.... The first of these seems to have his name from the general name of the tribe or nation, and the other is called Homam, 1 Chronicles 1:39 , and Lotan's sister was Timna : whom Eliphaz the firstborn of Esau took for his concubine, Genesis 36:12 ; for the sake of which her relation to Lotan is here mentioned; and she is said to be the sister of this man particularly, though there were seven brethren of them, because she might be his... read more

And these are the children of Zibeon ,.... The third son of Self, and who had two sons: both Ajah and Anah ; of the latter it is observed: this was that Anah that found the mules in the wilderness, as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father ; who observed, while he was feeding his father's asses in the wilderness, that the he asses coupled with mares, or horses with the she asses, and produced another sort of creatures called mules; and by this means found out the way how such... read more

And the children of Anah were these ,.... Dishon , the name of one of his uncles. Genesis 36:21 , and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah ; Aben Ezra thinks this is not the same Anah that was mentioned in the beginning of this verse; since, if he was the same, there was no need to mention him again, but that he is the same that is mentioned in Genesis 36:2 ; but if he is not the same that is spoken of in this verse and Genesis 36:24 , it is difficult to account for the mention of... read more

Duke Korah ,.... Only among the sons of Eliphaz is reckoned Duke Korah, not before mentioned among his sons, and is left out in the Samaritan version; See Gill on Genesis 36:7 ; to which it may be added, that according to Gerundinsis F1 Apud Menaasseh ut supra. (conciliator in Gen. Quaest. 57. p. 81.) , this is the same with Timna, related among the sons of Eliphaz, 1 Chronicles 1:36 ; who was called by his father Korah: or this might be a grandson of Eliphaz. read more
