What does Genesis 36:41 mean? [⇑ See verse text ⇑]
Chapter 36 ends with a collection of names: the chiefs of Esau (Genesis 36:40) in the region of Edom (Genesis 36:1–8). This list differs both from the list of the sons of Esau (Genesis 36:9–14) and of the kings of Edom (Genesis 36:31–39). These may have been the names of secondary lords, or captains, and they eventually became associated with certain regions within Edom.The chiefs listed here included Timna, Alvah, Jetheth (Genesis 36:40), and now Oholibamah, Elah, and Pinon. Oholibama's name is an interesting inclusion, as this is also the name of one of Esau's wives (Genesis 36:2).
