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.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
- 1 Chronicles 1:54
Magdiel, and Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 1:542 voices
All these and all theirs had their day; many of them made a mighty noise in the world; until their day came to fall, and their place knew them no more. The paths of death are trodden paths. How soon are we to tread them?
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
Adam was the common father of our flesh, Abraham the common father of the faithful. By the breach which the former made of the covenant of innocency, we were all made miserable; by the covenant of grace made with the latter, we all are, or may be, made happy. We all are, by nature, the seed of Adam, branches of that wild olive.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
