She was a Hittite, which is significant because Esau's marriages to Canaanite women were a source of grief to his parents, Isaac and Rebekah (Genesis 26:34-35). Eliphaz, her son, would become a prominent figure, as he is considered the ancestor of the Edomites, a nation often in conflict with Israel. Eliphaz's name means "God is fine gold," indicating a possible acknowledgment of divine favor or blessing. In the Book of Job, Eliphaz the Temanite, one of Job's friends, is traditionally linked to this Eliphaz, suggesting a long-standing lineage and influence. Basemath gave birth to Reuel Persons / Places / Events 1. AdahOne of Esau's wives, Adah is a Hittite woman. Her marriage to Esau is significant as it reflects Esau's alliances with the Canaanite tribes, which were often at odds with the descendants of Abraham. 2. Eliphaz The son of Esau and Adah. Eliphaz becomes an important figure as he is the father of several Edomite chiefs, indicating the expansion and influence of Esau's lineage. 3. Esau The elder son of Isaac and Rebekah, Esau is the twin brother of Jacob. Known for selling his birthright, Esau's descendants, the Edomites, play a significant role in the history of Israel. 4. Basemath Another wife of Esau, Basemath is also a Canaanite woman. Her marriage to Esau further illustrates the blending of Esau's family with the local tribes. 5. Reuel The son of Esau and Basemath. Reuel's lineage is part of the broader account of the Edomites, who are frequently mentioned in the Old Testament. Teaching Points The Importance of Covenant RelationshipsEsau's marriages to Canaanite women illustrate the potential pitfalls of forming alliances outside of God's covenant community. Believers are encouraged to seek relationships that honor God and align with His purposes. Legacy and Influence The descendants of Esau, including Eliphaz and Reuel, remind us that our choices impact future generations. We are called to consider how our actions today shape the legacy we leave behind. Spiritual Discernment Esau's life serves as a cautionary tale about the need for spiritual discernment. Believers are urged to value their spiritual inheritance and make decisions that reflect their commitment to God's promises.Verses 4, 5. - And Adah bare to Esau Eliphas; - "The Strength of God" (Gesenius); afterwards the name of one of Job's friends (Job 2:11; Job 4:1; Job 15:1) - and Bashemath bare Reuel; - "The Friend of God" (Gesenius); the name of Moses' father-in-law (Exodus 2:18) - and Aholibamah bare Jeush, - "Collector" (Furst, Lange); "whom God hastens" (Gesenius); afterwards the name of a son of Rehoboam (2 Chronicles 11:19) - and Jaalam, - "whom God hides" (Gesenius); "Ascender of the Mountains" (Furst) - and Korah: - "Baldness" (Furst, Gesenius); the name of a family of Levites and singers in the time of David to whom ten of the psalms are ascribed - these are the sons of Esau, which wore born unto him in the land of Canaan - not necessarily implying' that other sons were born to him in Edom, but rather intimating that all his family were born before he left the Holy Land.
