Genesis 25:15-16

25:15

<02316> [Hadar. or, Hadad.]

More than 300 MSS. and printed editions read Hadad, as in 1 Ch 1:30.

Tema <08485> [Tema.]

Naphish <05305> [Naphish.]

These are evidently the same people mentioned in 1 Ch 5:19, who, with the Itureans, assisted the Hagarenes against the Israelites, but were overcome by the two tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.


25:16

camps <02918> [castles.]

The word {tiroth,} rendered "castles," is supposed by some to denote here "towers," fortified rocks, or mountain-tops, and fastnesses of various kinds in woods and hilly countries; but it rather means, "shepherds' cots," surrounded by sufficient enclosures to prevent the cattle from straying, as the cognate Syriac word {teyaro,} and Arabic {tawar,} signify "a sheep-fold."

<08147> [twelve.]
