Genesis 35-42 (Translated)

1 Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom. Here is the Testimony of Esau, also known as Edom: Jacob took down these details from Esau and included them in his own Testimony (Hebrew ?????? (toledoth), family history, origins history, or as used here, a written testimony.) 6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob. Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and every member of his household, and his cattle, and his beasts, and all his possessions that he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went into the country away from the presence of his brother Jacob, 11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz. The sons of Eliphaz were: Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife. Timna became a common-law wife of Eliphaz son of Esau. She gave birth, for Eliphaz, to Amalek. These were the sons of Adah, wife of Esau. From Amalek come the Amalekites, who would trouble the peace of Israel for centuries. The Amalekites are also a candidate for the identity of the Hyksos, the "shepherd kings" who took over Egypt between the eras of the Middle Kingdom and the Empire. 13 And these are the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. The sons of Reuel were: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Bashemath, wife of Esau. 14 And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. These were the sons of Aholibamah, daughter of Anah daughter of Zibeon, the wife of Esau: she gave birth, for Esau, to Jeush, Jaalam, and Korah. This is not the same as Korah the Mutineer, grandson of Levi. 15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz, These were the sheikhs among the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz, firstborn of Esau: sheikh Teman, sheikh Omar, sheikh Zepho, sheikh Kenaz, The word rendered "duke" in the KJV is ???? (aluph). The best translation is "sheikh" for a leader of a part-Arab people. Aluph literally means "strong man," and can mean "leader." (Root aleph an ox, or a thousand, or a military unit slightly larger than a battalion and tentatively regarded as a thousand strong). The noble title of "duke" in English (or duc in French, etc.) derives from the Latin duceo, meaning "I lead."

The first modern person to carry the title of Aluf was Colonel David D. "Mickey" Marcus, United States Army, also known as Michael Stone, assigned as theater commander of the Jerusalem campaign and the most famous of the foreign volunteers who fought to assure the independence of Israel in 1948. Today an Aluf is a flag-ranked officer in the modern Israel Defense Forces.

16 Duke Korah, duke Gatam, and duke Amalek: these are the dukes that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of Adah. sheikh Korah, sheikh Gatam, and sheikh Amalek. These are the sheikhs that came from Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of Adah. In fact, they've been mentioned already; see above. 17 And these are the sons of Reuel Esau's son; duke Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these are the dukes that came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. These are the sons of Reuel, son of Esau: sheikh Nahath, sheikh Zerah, sheikh Shammah, sheikh Mizzah: these are the sheikhs that came from Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Bashemath, wife of Esau. 18 And these are the sons of Aholibamah Esau's wife; duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these were the dukes that came of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife. These are the sons of Aholibamah, wife of Esau: sheikh Jeush, sheikh Jaalam, sheikh Korah: these were the sheikhs that came from Aholibamah, daughter of Anah, wife of Esau. 20 These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah, These are the sons of Seir the Horite, who lived in the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah, 21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these are the dukes of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom. Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan: these are the sheikhs of the Horites, the sons of Seir in the country of Edom. 23 And the children of Shobal were these; Alvan, and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. The sons of Shobal were: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. 26 And these are the children of Dishon; Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran. The sons of Dishon were: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran. 29 These are the dukes that came of the Horites; duke Lotan, duke Shobal, duke Zibeon, duke Anah, These are the sheikhs of the Horites: sheikh Lotan, sheikh Shobal, sheikh Zibeon, sheikh Anah, 30 Duke Dishon, duke Ezer, duke Dishan: these are the dukes that came of Hori, among their dukes in the land of Seir. sheikh Dishon, sheikh Ezer, sheikh Dishan: these are the sheikhs that came from the Horites, among their sheikhs in the country of Seir. 35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Avith. Husham died, and Hadad son of Bedad, who defeated the Midianites in the field of Moab, succeeded him. The name of his capital city was Avith. 39 And Baal-hanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was Pau; and his wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab. Baal-hanan son of Achbor died, and Hadar succeeded him. His capital city was Pau, and his wife's name was Mehetabel, daughter of Matred, daughter of Mezahab. 40 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 are the names of the sheikhs that came from Esau, according to their families and places and names: sheikh Timnah, sheikh Alvah, sheikh Jetheth, 41 Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke Pinon, sheikh Aholibamah, sheikh Elah, sheikh Pinon, 42 Duke Kenaz, duke Teman, duke Mibzar, sheikh Kenaz, sheikh Teman, sheikh Mibsar,

I have a theory....that the disparity in growth rates of Britain and Spain starting in the 16th century through to the world wars was caused by the Reconquista, especially the fanaticism of Isobel. When the riches of the New World started to roll in, Spain had no middle class who knew what to do with it. A simplification I know....

Maybe they should have disenchristianized the place. AlanE 21:32, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

A simplification but valid. Moreover, the distribution of conquered land among Christian nobles meant a kind of bastard feudalism that lasted into the late nineteenth century and was one of the causes of the various Spanish civil wars of the last two hundred years.

Christian apologetics is the defense of the Christian faith through logical arguments. The term comes from the Greek word apologia, which means "defense".

Terry Hurlbut, an administrator at Conservapedia, challenges Richard Lenski to a creation vs. evolution debate lasting two hours in oral debate format. The debate topic will be "Did amoeba to man evolution occur?"

The two hour long debate, which will include an audience question and answer period as part of the two hours, will be recorded and be posted to the internet and be public domain so the public can freely share it. A mutually agreed-upon internet news organization or radio talk show host will moderate the debate.

Eugenie Scott and Andrew Schlafly had a public exchange which was hosted by a news organization. Is Richard Lenski willing to debate a creationist Conservapedian as well?

We want the debate to be a 2 hours in length including the audience question and answer period so that both parties have plenty of time to make their case and plenty of time to be cross-examined as well.

Okay, I give up. Mr. Schlafly wants this page to be as much of a joke as the rest of the site is. User: eg

Once again, Conservapedia is bashing someone who's ahead of Tim Tebow on the depth chart. Its agenda is quite transparent, given the gratuitous pro-life moniker attached to Tebow in an article about a completely unrelated topic. The article alleges liberal bias denies the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year to conservative athletes, yet Curt Schilling, 2001 winner of the award, is widely known to be conservative and indeed is present on Conservapedia's own list of Conservative Sports Stars. (!) Meanwhile, the article asserts Tebow, whose 47.9 career NFL completion percentage trails even all-time draft bust Ryan Leaf's, is a better option at quarterback than Brady, who is nearly universally considered among the all-time great quarterbacks by present and past players, experts, and observers of football. ---Solomon Curt Schilling was given only a shared Sportsman of the Year award. Also, comments like "universally considered" blah blah blah have no value here. Logic governs this site. Most people in the world reject the Bible and free market economics, but that obviously doesn't mean they aren't true.--Andy Schlafly 19:07, 13 June 2013 (EDT) Tom Brady is one of only three QBs (Montana, Aikman) to lead his team to three or more Super Bowl victories and one of just two (Elway) to reach five Super Bowls. Brady's career passer rating of 96.6 is second all-time, 0.2 behind Steve Young's 96.8. The Brady-led Patriots have never had a non-winning season and have only failed to reach the playoffs one year (2002; they also missed the playoffs in 2008 when Brady was injured for the season in Week 1). Brady's career playoff record in ten appearances out of eleven years as full-season starter is 17-7. Andrew Schlafly, if you want to argue against Brady's objectively measurable greatness as demonstrated by these irrefutable facts or dismiss them with "blah blah blah", you're only undermining your own credibility and that of this site you bill as "trustworthy." ---Solomon Yeah, conservative Christians like Drew Brees and David Robinson never win the award, except for the years that they did.---eg Broken clocks have correct time twice-a=day too. Such examples hardly prove that a clock works, or that the liberal media are not biased against outspoken Christians.--Andy Schlafly 00:11, 14 June 2013 (EDT) Balderdash. The "broken clock" of your example is right twice a day by chance simply by doing absolutely nothing. Conservative athletes can and have been ACTIVELY chosen as SI's Sportsman of the Year. You have given zero compelling evidence, in this entry or anywhere else on this site, that the sports media has an active bias against conservative Christian athletes. Furthermore, your statement is that the award is denied to the "Greatest Conservative Sports Stars". The single example given above by User: Solomon BY ITSELF sufficiently shows that this statement is not true. Two more examples have also been given by me (David Robinson is not currently on your list, but he should be). All three examples are from the last 12 years, so continuing to claim, as this entry does, that the award is not given to conservative sports stars is an outright falsehood. But go ahead, you can keep claiming that the sun is blue provided that you never look at it to see that you're wrong.---eg
