And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife,.... See Gill on Gen 36:2; here also the Samaritan and Septuagint versions read, "the daughter of Anah, the son of Zibeon": and she bare to Esau, Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah; this is repeated from Gen 36:5; no mention is made of her grandchildren, as of his other wives.

- Genesis 36:41
Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon,
Commentary on Genesis 36:412 voices
Duke Aholibamah, Duke Elah, Duke Pinon. The former is the name of a woman, Gen 36:2; here the name of a man, and also of the place of which he was duke; for Jerom observes (q), that Oolibama is a city of the princes of Edom, and who also makes mention of Elath, a country of the princes of Edom, and a city of Esau, ten miles from Petra to the east (r), and the seat of Duke Pinon was very probably Phinon, which lay between Petra and Zoar (s). (q) De Loc. Heb. fol. 93. K. (r) Ib. fol.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
These are the names - Observe here, 1. That only the names of Esau's sons and grand-sons are recorded: not their history, for it is the church that Moses preserves the records of, not of those that were without. The elders only that lived by faith obtained a good report.
