Genesis 36:31-43

Genesis 36:31-43 TPT

Long before the Israelites had kings, there were eight kings who reigned in Edom, beginning with Bela son of Beor from the city of Dinhabah. When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah from the city of Bozrah succeeded. When Jobab died, Husham from the land of Teman succeeded him. When Husham died, Hadad from the city of Avith, who was the son of Bedad, succeeded him. Hadad defeated the Midianites in the land of Moab. When Hadad died, Samlah of Masrekah succeeded him. When Samlah died, Shaul of Rehoboth-on-the-River succeeded him. When Shaul died, Baal-Hanan son of Achbor succeeded him. When Baal-Hanan son of Achbor died, Hadar from the city of Pau succeeded him. (His wife was Mehetabel the daughter of Matred, Me-Zahab’s granddaughter.) These are the tribes of Esau according to their clans and regions: Timna, Alvah, Jetheth, Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon, Kenaz, Teman, Mibzar, Magdiel, and Iram. This concludes the list of the Edomite tribes who settled and possessed land in different regions of their country. All the Edomites descended from Esau.
