36:19 These were the sons of Esau (also known as Edom), and these were their chiefs.

Genesis 36:23

36:23 These were the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, ²  and Onam.

Genesis 36:25-26

[36:9]  ¹ sn The term father in genealogical records needs to be carefully defined. It can refer to a literal father, a grandfather, a political overlord, or a founder.

[36:23]  ² tn This name is given as “Shephi” in 1 Chr 1:40.

[36:25]  ³ tn Heb “sons,” but since a daughter is included in the list, the word must be translated “children.”

[36:26]  ⁴ 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).
