Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: אָהֶל (ohel, meaning "tent") and בָּמָה (bamah, meaning "high place" or "height").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Oholibamah, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: Oholibamah is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, specifically as a personal name. Context: Oholibamah is a significant figure in the genealogies of Esau, appearing in the Book of Genesis. She is one of Esau's wives and is noted for her Edomite lineage. Oholibamah is the daughter of Anah and the granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite. Her marriage to Esau is mentioned in Genesis 36, where she is listed among the wives who bore Esau's children. The children of Oholibamah and Esau include Jeush, Jalam, and Korah, who are recognized as chiefs among the Edomites. The name Oholibamah reflects a connection to a place of worship or a significant location, as suggested by the components "tent" and "high place." This may indicate her family's status or religious affiliations within the Edomite community. The narrative of Oholibamah contributes to the broader story of Esau's descendants and their role in the history of the Edomites, a people often in conflict with the Israelites.
