He became the father of five sons; of whom Jaus, and Jalomus, and
Coreus, were by one wife, whose name was Alibama; but of the rest, Aliphaz
was born to him by Ada, and Raguel by Basemmath: and these were the sons
of Esau. Aliphaz had five legitimate sons; Theman, Omer, Saphus, Gotham,
and Kanaz; for Amalek was not legitimate, but by a concubine, whose name
was Thamna. These dwelt in that part of Idumea which is called Gebalitis,
and that denominated from Amalek, Amalekitis; for Idumea was a large country,
and did then preserve the name of the whole, while in its several parts
it kept the names of its peculiar inhabitants.
