Genesis 36:34 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of Temani reigned in his stead.

Husham of the land of Temani - or the Temanites. [The Septuagint has: ek tees gees Thaimanoon]. Eusebius and Jerome mention a town, Teman, fifteen miles from Petra. Burckhardt identifies it with the present Maan. Wilton (Negeb), who considers Teman synonymous with Mount Paran (Habakkuk 3:3), makes Heshmon the city of Husham (see the note at Joshua 15:27).
