창세기 36:40-43 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Genesis 36:31-42

By degrees, it seems, the Edomites wormed out the Horites, obtained full possession of the country, and had a government of their own. 1. They were ruled by kings, who governed the whole country, and seem to have come to the throne by election, and not by lineal descent; so bishop Patrick observes. These kings reigned in Edom before there reigned any king over the children of Israel, that is, before Moses's time, for he was king in Jeshurun, Deut. 33:5. God had lately promised Jacob that kings... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Genesis 36:40

And these are the names of the dukes that came of Esau ,.... After the regal monarchy ceased, the government in Edom was by dukes, and of these there were two sons, one of which an account has been given of already, who were partly of the race of Seir, and partly of the race of Esau; and who were dukes not by succession, but together, in and over their respective families: and it may be observed, that neither Esau, nor his sons by his two first wives, Eliphaz and Reuel, are called dukes,... read more

Duke Aholibamah, Duke Elah, Duke Pinon. The former is the name of a woman, Genesis 36:2 ; here the name of a man, and also of the place of which he was duke; for Jerom observes F17 De Loc. Heb. fol. 93. K. , that Oolibama is a city of the princes of Edom, and who also makes mention of Elath, a country of the princes of Edom, and a city of Esau, ten miles from Petra to the east F18 Ib. fol. 91. E. , and the seat of Duke Pinon was very probably Phinon, which lay between Petra and... read more

Duke Kenaz, Duke Teman, Duke Mibzar. There was a Kenaz the son of Eliphaz, and so a Teman a son of his, who were both dukes; but these seem to be different from them, though the latter might be duke of the place called Teman from him: which, in Jerom's time F20 De loc. Hebrews 3 . fol. 95. B. , was a village five miles distant from Petra, and where was a Roman garrison, and so Mabsar in his times F21 Ib. , was a large village in the country of Gabalena (a part of Idumea), and... read more

Duke Magdiel, Duke Iram ,.... Magdiel also, Jerom F23 De loc. Hebrews 3 . fol. 93. B. says, was in the country of Gabalena, formerly possessed by the dukes of Edom; and the Targum of Jonathan says, this duke was called Magdiel from the name of his city, which was a strong "migdal" or tower: and Jarchi's note upon this word is, this is Rome; so the Jewish writers elsewhere say F24 Pirke Eliezer, c. 38. , that Esau had an hundred provinces from Seir to Magdiel; as it is said,... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 36:40

These are the names of the dukes that came of Esau - These dukes did not govern the whole nation of the Idumeans, but they were chiefs in their respective families, in their places - the districts they governed, and to which they gave their names. Calmet thinks that those mentioned above were dukes in Edom or Idumea at the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 36:43

He is Esau the father of the Edomites - That is, The preceding list contains an account of the posterity of Esau, who was the father of Edom. Thus ends Esau's history; for after this there is no farther account of his life, actions, or death, in the Pentateuch. 1. As Esau is so considerable a person in polemic divinity, it may be necessary, in this place especially, to say something farther of his conduct and character. I have already, in several places, endeavored, and I hope... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 36:40-43

And these are the names of the dukes that came of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names. It is now generally agreed that this and the ensuing verses contain not a second list of dukes who rose to power on the overthrow of the preceding monarchical institutions (Bertheau, Ainsworth, Patrick), or a continuation of the preceding list of dukes, which had simply been interrupted by a parenthesis about the kings (Bush); but either an enumeration of the hereditary... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 36:43

Genesis 36:43. In the land of their possession While the Israelites dwelt in the house of bondage, and their Canaan was only the land of promise, the Edomites dwelt in their own habitations, and Seir was in their possession. The children of this world have their all in hand, and nothing in hope, while the children of God have often their all in hope, and next to nothing in hand. But, all things considered, it is better to have Canaan in promise than mount Seir in possession. read more
