- Temani:
- Eusebius places Teman, or Theman, which probably gave name to "the land of Temani," in Arabia Petrea, five miles from Petra, and says there was a Roman garrison there. "And the sonsª of Eliphazª were¹ Teman,ª Omar,ª Zepho,ª and Gatam,ª and Kenaz.ª" {Gen 36:11} + "These¹ [were] dukesª of the sonsª of Esau:ª the sonsª of Eliphazª the firstbornª [son] of Esau;ª dukeª Teman,ª dukeª Omar,ª dukeª Zepho,ª dukeª Kenaz,ª" {Gen 36:15} + "Now when Job'sª threeª friendsª heardª°¹ of all¹ this¹ evilª that was comeª° upon¹ him, they cameª° every oneª from his own place;ª¹ Eliphazª the Temanite,ª and Bildadª the Shuhite,ª and Zopharª the Naamathite:ª for they had made an appointmentª° togetherª to comeª° to mournª° with him and to comfortª° him." {Job 2:11} + "Concerning Edom,ª thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts;ª [Is] wisdomª no¹ more¹ in Teman?ª is counselª perishedª° from the prudent?ª°¹ is their wisdomª vanished?ª°" {Jer 49:7}
