Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Lotan, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: Lotan is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, specifically as a personal name.

Context: Lotan is mentioned in the genealogical records of the Bible as a descendant of Seir the Horite. He is identified as one of the chiefs of the Horites, a group of people who inhabited the land of Seir before the Edomites. Lotan is listed as the first son of Seir and is noted to have had two children, Hori and Hemam. The Horites were known to have been integrated into the Edomite nation, and Lotan's lineage is significant in understanding the ancestry and tribal affiliations of the region. The mention of Lotan can be found in Genesis 36:20-29, where the chiefs of the Horites are enumerated. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) states: "These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These are the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom."
