1 The son of Esau and Basemath, the daughter of Ishmael, whose descendants show Esau’s ties with Edom (Gen 36). 2 The priest of Midian, father (?) of Hobab, who gave his daughter Zipporah in marriage to Moses (Exod 2; Num 10:29). Perhaps he was the same as Jethro, the priest of Midian, also identified as Moses’s father-in-law (Exod 4:18; the Heb. term means a male relative by marriage). 3 A Gadite, father of Eliasaph (Num 2:14), also cited as “Deuel” (LXX: “Reuel”). 4 A Benjaminite (1Chr 9:8).
