Chuàngshìjì 36:32 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 36:32

And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom
His name was not Balac, as the Septuagint version, which may lead to think of Balak king of Moab; nor is this the same with Balaam, the son of Beor, who lived ages after, as some in Aben Ezra: who he was we know no more of than what is here said; he was the first Horite king, and is placed by Mr. Bedford ^F9 in A. M. 2002: and the name of his city [was] Dinhabah,
the place either where he was born, or where he had been governor before, but of it we read nowhere else.
