Genesis 36:3 In-Context

1 Now this is the history of the generations of Esav (the same is Edom).

2 Esav took his wives from the daughters of Kana`an: `Adah the daughter of Elon, the Hittite; and Oholivamah the daughter of `Anah, the daughter of Tziv`on, the Hivvi;

3 and Basemat, Yishma'el's daughter, sister of Nevayot.

4 `Adah bore to Esav Elifaz. Basemat bore Re`u'el.

5 Oholivamah bore Ye`ush, Ya`lam, and Korach. These are the sons of Esav, who were born to him in the land of Kana`an.
