Footnotes

  1. 1 Chronicles 1:38 It is clear from what follows that not all of these names are sons in the narrow biological sense of the term. Seir is the same region as Edom. These are not necessarily physical descendants of Esau but peoples that joined his nation.
  2. 1 Chronicles 1:40 Variant Alvan. The Hebrew equivalents of i and v look alike.
