Genesis 36:41

Duke Aholibamah, Duke Elah, Duke Pinon. The former is the name of a woman, Genesis 36:2 ; here the name of a man, and also of the place of which he was duke; for Jerom observes F17 De Loc. Heb. fol. 93. K. , that Oolibama is a city of the princes of Edom, and who also makes mention of Elath, a country of the princes of Edom, and a city of Esau, ten miles from Petra to the east F18 Ib. fol. 91. E. , and the seat of Duke Pinon was very probably Phinon, which lay between Petra and Zoar F19 Eusebius apud Reland. Palestin. illustrat. p. 71. .
