“And these are the names of the dukes that came of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names; duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth,”
These were the chiefs descended from Esau, by name, according to their clans and regions: Timna, Alvah, Jetheth. The closing section of the Edomite genealogy lists the chiefs by name, clan, and region — the complete geographical and political organization of the Edomite people. The application: the Edomite nation is fully organized — chiefs, clans, regions — a complete people in their own right.
