the daughter: We ought, most probably, to read here and in Gen 36:14, as in Gen 36:20, "the son of Zibeon;" which is the reading of the Samaritan, Septuagint (and Syriac, in Gen 36:2), and which Houbigant and Kennicott contend to be genuine.

gen 36:15

First aristocracy of dukes, from am cir, 2429, to am cir, 2471; from bc cir. 1575, to bc cir. 1533.

dukes: The word duke is from the Latin dux, a captain or leader, from duco, to lead, guide; which is the exact import of the Hebrew (אלוף [Strong's H441]), alluph, from אלף, to lead, guide; and is here applied to heads of families, chieftains, or princes, who were military leaders. Gen 36:18; Ch1 1:35

Eliphaz: Job 21:8; Psa 37:35

duke Teman: Gen 36:4, Gen 36:11, Gen 36:12; Ch1 1:36, Ch1 1:45, Ch1 1:51-54; Job 2:11, Job 4:1; Jer 49:7, Jer 49:20; Eze 25:13; Amo 1:12; Oba 1:9; Hab 3:3

Genesis 36:16

gen 36:16

Duke Korah: As it is certain from Gen 36:4, that Eliphaz was Esau's son by Adah, and from Gen 36:11 and Gen 36:12, that Eliphaz had but six sons, "Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, Kenaz, and Amalek;" as is is also certain, from Gen 36:5 and Gen 36:14, that Korah was the son of Esau (not Eliphaz) by Aholibamah; and as the words duke Korah are omitted by both the Samaritan text and version, Dr. Kennicott pronounces them to be an interpolation.

Bozrah: Bozrah, Bezer, or Bostra, was situated in Arabia Deserta, and the eastern part of Edom; and, according to Eusebius, was 24 miles from Edrei. It afterwards belonged to Moab, and was given by Moses to Reuben, but again reverted to Edom. It is now called Boszra; and is described by Burckhardt as the largest town in the Haouran, including its ruins, though only inhabited by about twelve or fifteen families. It is situated in the open plain, two hours distant from Aare, and is at present the last inhabited place in the south-east extremity of the Haouran. It is of an oval shape, it greatest length being from east to west; and its circumference three quarters of an hour. Isa 34:6, Isa 63:1; Jer 49:13, Jer 49:22; Amo 1:12; Mic 2:12
