Genesis 36:15-20
[First aristocracy of dukes, from A.M. cir. 2429, to A.M. cir.]
2471; from B.C. cir. 1575, to B.C. cir. 1533.
chiefs ............. chief ... chief ... chief ... chief <0441> [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 [alluph <\\See definition 0441\\,>] {alluph,} from [aleph, lamed, pheh,] to lead, guide; and is here applied to heads of families, chieftains, or princes, who were military leaders.
Eliphaz <0464> [Eliphaz.]
chiefs ............. chief Teman chief ... chief ... chief <0441 08487> [duke Teman.]
chief Korah chief ... chief ...... chiefs <0441 07141> [Duke Korah.]
As it is certain from ver. 4, that Eliphaz was Esau's son by Adah, and from ver. 11, 12, that Eliphaz had but six sons, "Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, Kenaz, and Amalek;" as is is also certain, from ver. 5, 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.
chief ... chief ... chief ...... chiefs <0441> [dukes.]
Reuel ................ Reuel <07467> [Reuel.]
Edom <0123> [who is Edom.]

Esau <06215> [Esau.]
Adah <05711> [Adah. or, Bashemath.]
Oholibamah <0173> [Aholibamah.]
[Judith. the daughter.]
We ought, most probably, to read here and in ver. 14, as in ver. 20, "the son of Zibeon;" which is the reading of the Samaritan, Septuagint, (and Syriac, in ver. 2,) and which Houbigant and Kennicott contend to be genuine.
