14 Esau also had sons through Oholibamah,
the daughter of Anah and granddaughter
of Zibeon. Their names were Jeush, Jalam,
and Korah.
15 These
are the descendants of Esau who became the leaders of various clans:
The descendants of Esau’s oldest son,
Eliphaz, became the leaders of the clans
of Teman, Omar, Zepho, Kenaz, 16 Korah,
Gatam, and Amalek. These are the
clan leaders in the land of Edom who
descended from Eliphaz. All these were
descendants of Esau’s wife Adah.
17 The descendants of Esau’s son Reuel
became the leaders of the clans of Nahath,
Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These are
the clan leaders in the land of Edom who
descended from Reuel. All these were
descendants of Esau’s wife Basemath.
18 The descendants of Esau and his wife
Oholibamah became the leaders of the
clans of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These
are the clan leaders who descended from
Esau’s wife Oholibamah, the daughter of
Anah.
19 These are the clans descended from Esau
(also known as Edom), identified by their clan
leaders.
20 These are the names of the tribes that descended from Seir the Horite. They lived in the
land of Edom: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,
21 Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These were the
Horite clan leaders, the descendants of Seir,
who lived in the land of Edom.
22 The descendants of Lotan were Hori and
Hemam. Lotan’s sister was named Timna.
23 The descendants of Shobal were Alvan,
Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.
24 The descendants of Zibeon were Aiah and
Anah. (This is the Anah who discovered
the hot springs in the wilderness while he
was grazing his father’s donkeys.)
25 The descendants of Anah were his son,
Dishon, and his daughter, Oholibamah.
26 The descendants of Dishon* were Hemdan,
Eshban, Ithran, and Keran.
27 The descendants of Ezer were Bilhan,
Zaavan, and Akan.
28 The descendants of Dishan were Uz and
Aran.
29 So these were the leaders of the Ho
rite
clans: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, 30 Dishon,
Ezer, and Dishan. The Horite clans are named
after their clan leaders, who lived in the land
of Seir.
31 These are the kings who ruled in the
land of Edom before any king ruled over the
Israelites*:
32 Bela son of Beor, who ruled in Edom from
his city of Dinhabah.
33 When Bela died, Jobab son of Zerah from
Bozrah became king in his place.
34 When Jobab died, Husham from the land of
the Temanites became king in his place.
35 When Husham died, Hadad son of Bedad
became king in his place and ruled from
the city of Avith. He was the one who
defeated the Midianites in the land of
Moab.
36 When Hadad died, Samlah from the city of
Masrekah became king in his place.
37 When Samlah died, Shaul from the city of
Rehoboth-on-the-River became king in his
place.
38 When Shaul died, B
aal-hanan son of Acbor
became king in his place.
39 When B
aal-hanan son of Acbor died,
Hadad* became king in his place and
ruled from the city of Pau. His wife was
Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred and
granddaughter of Me-zahab.
40 These are the names of the leaders of the
clans descended from Esau, who lived in the
places named for them: Timna, Alvah, Jetheth,
41 Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon, 42 Kenaz, Teman,
Mibzar, 43 Magdiel, and Iram. These are the
leaders of the clans of Edom, listed according
to their settlements in the land they occupied.
They all descended from Esau, the ancestor of
the Edomites.
35:10 Jacob sounds like the Hebrew words for “heel” and
“deceiver.” Israel means “God fights.” 35:21 Hebrew Israel;
also in 35:22a. The names “Jacob” and “Israel” are often
interchanged throughout the Old Testament, referring
sometimes to the individual patriarch and sometimes to the
36:26 Hebrew Dishan, a variant spelling of Dishon;
nation.

MATTHEW 12:1‑21
At about that time J esus was walking through
some grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples
were hungry, so they began breaking off
some heads of grain and eating them. 2 But
some Pharisees saw them do it and protested,
“Look, your disciples are breaking the law by
harvesting grain on the Sabbath.”
3 Jesus said to them, “Haven’t you read in
the Scriptures what David did when he and
his companions were hungry? 4 He went into
the house of God, and he and his companions
broke the law by eating the sacred loaves of
