  • The Book of Isaiah Chapter 1 V.1 Part 4.6

    The Book of Isaiah

    Chapter 1 V.1 Part 4.6

     

     

    Now, I can’t see where any of this self-sufficient effort profited him anything. Let’s see what was spawned from the bonds of self-sufficiency.

     

    Gen 36:4  And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;

    Gen 36:5  And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these [are] the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.

     

    Gen 36:12  And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau’s son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these [were] the sons of Adah Esau’s wife.

     

    Gen 36:15 These [were] dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz (my God is (fine) gold ) the firstborn [son] of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz,

    Gen 36:16  Duke Korah, (bald) duke Gatam, [and] duke Amalek: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these [were] the sons of Adah.

    Gen 36:17  And these [are] the sons of Reuel Esau’s son; duke Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Reuel in the land of Edom; these [are] the sons of Bashemath Esau’s wife.

    Gen 36:18  And these [are] the sons of Aholibamah Esau’s wife; duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these [were] the dukes [that came] of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau’s wife.

    Gen 36:19  These [are] the sons of Esau, who [is] Edom, and these [are] their dukes.

     

    Esau = “hairy”

        Adah = “ornament”

            Eliphaz = “my God is (fine) gold”

    Teman = “south”

    Omar = “speaker” or “eloquent”

    Zepho or Zephi = “watch-tower”

    Gatam = “a burnt valley”

    Kenaz = “hunter”

    Timna or Timnah = “restrained”

    Amalek = “dweller in a valley”

    Ishmael = “God will hear”

    Nebaioth or Nebajoth = “heights

    Bashemath or Basmath = “spice”

    Reuel or Raguel = “friend of God”

    Nahath = “rest”

    Zerah or Zarah = “rising”

    Shammah = “astonishment”

    Mizzah = “fear”

    Zibeon = “coloured” Hivite = “villagers”

    Anah = “answer”

    Aholibamah = “tent of the high place”

    Jeush = “assembler”

    Jaalam = “concealed”

    Korah = “bald”

     

    From what I see here, this is indicative that there is no one that is not redeemable to some extent, because I see “my God is (fine) gold” and a “friend of God” among his descendants. There is evidence of “rest” amid “rising” “astonishment” and “fear.” One could also surmise that a “speaker” was “south” in a “watch tower” of “a burnt valley” where a “hunter” resides. Then again, one might say a “bald” “assembler” was “concealed,” but who really knows?
