36:23 These were the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, ⁹  and Onam.

Kejadian 36:40-43

36:40 These were the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families, according to their places, by their names: chief Timna, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth, 36:41 chief Oholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon, 36:42 chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar, 36:43 chief Magdiel, chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom, according to their settlements ¹³  in the land they possessed. This was Esau, the father of the Edomites.

[36:15]  ¹ tn Or “clan leaders” (so also throughout this chapter).

[36:15]  ² tn Or “sons.”

[36:16]  ³ tc The Samaritan Pentateuch omits the name “Korah” (see v. 11 and 1 Chr 1:36).

[36:16]  ⁴ tn Or “grandsons” (NIV); “descendants” (NEB).

[36:17]  ⁵ tn Or “grandsons” (NIV); “descendants” (NEB).

[36:20]  ⁶ sn The same pattern of sons, grandsons, and chiefs is now listed for Seir the Horite. “Seir” is both the name of the place and the name of the ancestor of these tribes. The name “Horite” is probably not to be identified with “Hurrian.” The clan of Esau settled in this area, intermarried with these Horites and eventually dispossessed them, so that they all became known as Edomites (Deut 2:12 telescopes the whole development).

[36:21]  ⁷ tn Or “sons.”

[36:22]  ⁸ tn Heb “Hemam”; this is probably a variant spelling of “Homam” (1 Chr 1:39); cf. NRSV, NLT “Heman.”

[36:23]  ⁹ tn This name is given as “Shephi” in 1 Chr 1:40.

[36:24]  ¹⁰ tn The meaning of this Hebrew term is uncertain; Syriac reads “water” and Vulgate reads “hot water.”

[36:25]  ¹¹ tn Heb “sons,” but since a daughter is included in the list, the word must be translated “children.”

[36:26]  ¹² tn Heb “Dishan,” but this must be either a scribal error or variant spelling, since “Dishan” is mentioned in v. 28 (see also v. 21).

[36:43]  ¹³ tn Or perhaps “territories”; Heb “dwelling places.”
