- Genesis 36:40
These are the names of Esau’s chiefs, according to their families and regions, by their names: Chiefs Timna, Alvah, Jetheth,
Commentary on Genesis 36:402 voices
These are the names - Observe here, 1. That only the names of Esau's sons and grand-sons are recorded: not their history, for it is the church that Moses preserves the records of, not of those that were without. The elders only that lived by faith obtained a good report.

- Joshua 15:10
The border curled westward from Baalah to Mount Seir, ran along the northern slope of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), went down to Beth-shemesh, and crossed to Timnah.
Commentary on Joshua 15:102 voices
And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto Mount Seir,....

Beth-shemesh - The house or temple of the sun. It is evident that the sun was an object of adoration among the Canaanites; and hence fountains, hills, etc., were dedicated to him. Beth-shemesh is remarkable for the slaughter of its inhabitants, in consequence of their prying curiously, if not impiously, into the ark of the Lord, when sent back by the Philistines. See 1Sa 6:19.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Joshua 15:57
Kain, Gibeah, and Timnah—ten cities, along with their villages.
Commentary on Joshua 15:571 voice
Cain,.... Cain, or Hakain, "that Cain", we nowhere else read of; whether the name was given it by the old Canaanites, in memory of Cain, the son of Adam, is not certain: Gibeah; there were other places that went by the name of Gibeah; there was a Gibeah in Benjamin, Jdg 20:4, and another in the same tribe called Gibeah of Saul, 1Sa 11:4, to distinguish it from that; but this was in the tribe of Judah. Masius conjectures it is the same with that in 1Sa 23:19 which was near Ziph; and not amiss.

- 1 Chronicles 1:51
Then Hadad died. Now the chiefs of Edom were Timna, Alvah, Jetheth,
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 1:512 voices
Hadad died - And his kingdom ended; for his land was subdued by the children of Esau, and the dukes of Edom ruled in the land of Gebala. - T. For various particulars in this chapter, see Genesis 10 (note) and Genesis 36 (note), and the parallel places.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
Adam was the common father of our flesh, Abraham the common father of the faithful. By the breach which the former made of the covenant of innocency, we were all made miserable; by the covenant of grace made with the latter, we all are, or may be, made happy. We all are, by nature, the seed of Adam, branches of that wild olive.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
- 2 Chronicles 28:18
The Philistines had also raided the cities of the foothills and the Negev of Judah, capturing and occupying Beth-shemesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth, as well as Soco, Timnah, and Gimzo with their villages.
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 28:182 voices
The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the low country,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Philistia also, eager to retaliate the blows she had received from Uzziah 2Ch 26:6, seized her opportunity. Ajalon and Shocho were among the cities fortified by Rehoboam 2Ch 11:7, 2Ch 11:10; Beth-shemesh Jos 15:10 was famous as the scene of Amaziahs defeat 2Ch 25:21. Gimzo, which is not elsewhere mentioned in Scripture has been probably identified with the modern Jimzu, a large village about 2 12 miles from Ludd (the ancient Lydda).
