What does Genesis 36:41 mean?

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).
