The Kings of Edom[ Genesis 36:31–43 ]

[43] [¶]Now these [are] the kings88 that reigned in the land of Edom before [any] king reigned over the children of Israel; Bela the son of Beor: and the name of his city [was] Dinhabah. [44] And when Bela was dead, Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah89 reigned in his stead. [45] And when Jobab90 was dead, Husham91 of the land of the Temanites92 reigned in his stead. [46] And when Husham was dead, Hadad93 the son of Bedad94, which smote Midian95 in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city [was] Avith96. [47] And when Hadad was dead, Samlah97 of Masrekah98 reigned in his stead. [48] And when Samlah was dead, Shaul99 of Rehoboth by the river reigned in his stead. [49] And when Shaul was dead, Baal–hanan100 the son of Achbor101 reigned in his stead.

[51] [¶]Hadad died also. And the dukes of Edom were; duke Timnah, duke Aliah104, duke Jetheth, [52] Duke Aholibamah105, duke Elah, duke Pinon, [53] Duke Kenaz106, duke Teman107, duke Mibzar108, [54] Duke Magdiel, duke Iram. These [are109] the dukes of Edom.

  73. i.e. eloquent, ( ‎אוֹמָר‎ ), Gen 36:11 

  74. i.e. expectations; watch thou, ( ‎צְפוֹ‎ ). Gen 36:11, Gen 36:15; The various reading of φτι ( ‎צְפוֹ‎ ), Zephi, and φτε ( ‎צְפוֹ‎ ), Zepho, is caused simply by the mutation of the Hebrew letter ι, yood, and ε, wav. Gen 36:15, Zepho 

  75. Gen 36:4 

  76. Gen 36:20, Gen 36:29-30 

  77. The variation here is only in the translation. Gen 36:21, Ezer 

  78. Gen 36:22; Deut 2:12, Deut 2:22 

  79. i.e. destruction, ( ‎הוֹמָם‎ ). This variation is simply the mutation of ι, yood and ε, wav; that in Genesis being properly διξν ( ‎הֵימָם‎ ), Hemam, and this, δεξν ( ‎הוֹמָם‎ ), Homam, Hemam, Gen 36:22 

  80. i.e. lofty, ( ‎עַלְוָן‎ ). Both these variations are also caused by the mutation of ι yood and ε wav; the former being written ςμεο ( ‎עַלְוָן‎ ), Alvan, and ςμιο ( ‎עַלְוָן‎ ), Alian; and the latter, ωΡτε ( ‎שְׁפוֹ‎ ), Shepho, and ωΡτι ( ‎שְׁפוֹ‎ ), Shephi. Gen 36:23, Alvan, Shepho 

  81. i.e. my bareness; my prominence, ( ‎שְׁפוֹ‎ ). ωΡτι

  82. The difference here is only in the translation; the original being uniformly ΰιδ ( ‎אַיָּה‎ ), Aiyah. Gen 36:24, Ajah. 

  83. Gen 46:7 

  84. 1Chr 1:38; Gen 36:25 

  85. This variation is only caused by the mutation of a γ, daleth, and a ψ, raish; the original being in Genesis ηξγο ( ‎חֶמְדָּן‎ ), Hemdan, and here ηξψο ( ‎עַמְרָם‎ ), Hamran. Gen 36:26, Hemdan 

  86. i.e. the disquiet, ( ‎זַעֲוָן‎ ). Gen 36:27; The former of these is the same in the original, ζςεο ( ‎זַעֲוָן‎ ), Zauvan, and the latter, ιςχο, is an error for εςχο, weakan, "and Achan." Gen 36:27, Zaavan, Achan 

  87. i.e. let him oppress them, ( ‎יַעֲקָן‎ ). Uz. Gen 10:23, Gen 36:28; Lam 4:21 

  88. Gen 36:31-39, Gen 49:10; Num 24:17-19 

  89. Isa 34:6, Isa 63:1; Jer 49:13; Amos 1:12; Mic 2:12 

  90. Gen 10:29 

  91. Gen 36:34 

  92. 1Chr 1:36, 1Chr 1:53; Job 2:11; Jer 49:7, Jer 49:20; Ezek 25:13; Amos 1:12; Obad 1:9; Hab 3:3 

  93. Gen 36:35 

  94. Gen 36:35 

  95. Gen 25:2 

  96. Gen 36:35 

  97. Gen 36:36 

  98. Gen 36:36 

  99. The original is uniformly Shaul. Gen 36:37, Saul 

  100. Gen 36:38 

  101. Gen 36:38 

  102. This variation is occasioned simply by the mutation of ψ, raish, and γ, daleth; being in Genesis, δγψ ( ‎הֲדַר‎ ), Hadar, and here, δγγ ( ‎הֲדַד‎ ), Hadad. Gen 36:39, Hadar 

  103. i.e. sighing, ( ‎פָּעוּ‎ ), This simply depends on the interchange of ι yood and ε wav; being written in Genesis τςε ( ‎פָּעוּ‎ ), Pau, and here, τςι ( ‎פָּעוּ‎ ), Pai. Gen 36:39, Pau 

  104. i.e. moral perverseness, ( ‎עַלְוָה‎ ), This is another instance of the mutation of ι yood and ε wav; in the former instance being ςμεδ ( ‎עַלְוָה‎ ), Alvah, and here, ςμιδ ( ‎עַלְוָה‎ ), Aliah, though the Keri also reads ςμεδ. Gen 36:40, Alvah 

  105. Gen 36:41 

  106. Gen 36:11 

  107. Gen 36:11 

  108. Gen 36:42 

  109. Gen 36:41-43
