Commentary on Genesis 36:212 voices
And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan,.... These were three others of the sons of Seir, which with the other four before mentioned made seven: these are the dukes of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom; these were in the land of Edom before it was so called and possessed by the Edomites, and whose posterity afterwards became tributary to them.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
These are the dukes of the Horites - It appears pretty evident that the Horites and the descendants of Esau were mixed together in the same land, as before observed; and Calmet has very properly remarked, that if we compare this verse with Gen 36:30, there were princes of Seir in the country of Seir, and in that of Edom; and in comparing the generations of Seir and Esau, we are obliged to consider these princes as contemporary.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Genesis 36:30
Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. They are the chiefs of the Horites, according to their divisions in the land of Seir.

- 1 Chronicles 1:38
The sons of Seir: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 1:382 voices
Seir - One of another nation, prince of the Horims; whose genealogy is here described, because of that affinity which was contracted between his and Esau's posterity; and those who were not united and incorporated with them, were destroyed by them.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
And the sons of Seir,.... This man and his posterity were not of the race of Esau, but are mentioned because they were a family into which Esau, and a son of his, married, and whose possessions he and his obtained. The account from hence, to the end of 1Ch 1:42 is the same with Gen 36:20, with some little variation of names.
