Son of Eliphaz, a son of Esau, and a duke of Edom; also his descendants and the district inhabited by them. It is four times connected with Edom, and twice with Dedan: this associates it with the south. Its wisdom is spoken of, and God's judgements are pronounced upon it. One of Job's friends was Eliphaz the Temanite. Genesis 36:11,15,34,42; 1 Chronicles 1:36,45,53; Job 2:11; Jeremiah 49:7,20; Ezekiel 25:13; Amos 1:12; Obadiah 9; Habakkuk 3:3 , in the margin 'south.' Not identified.
