<p> (Heb. Samlah', שִׂמְלָה, '' | <p> (Heb. Samlah', שִׂמְלָה, ''A Garment;'' Sept Σαλαμά, Σαμαά, v.r. Σαμαδά, Σεβλά ), a king who reigned in Edom before the [[Israelites]] had a king ( Genesis 36:36-37; 1 Chronicles 1:47-48). B.C. post 1618. He was the successor of Hadad or Hadar, and was of Masrrekah, that being probably the chief city during his reign. This mention of a separate city as belonging to each (almost without exception) of the "''Kings'' " of Edom suggests that the Edomitish kingdom consisted of a confederacy of tribes, and that the chief city of the reigning tribe was the metropolis of the whole. </p> | ||
