The narrative in Gen assigns to her two sons, [[Jabal]] the "father" of tent-dwelling people, and [[Jubal]] the "father" of all such as handle the harp and pipe." [[Josephus]] says that Lamech had 77 sons by Ada and [[Zillah]] ( <i> Ant. </i> , I, ii, 2). </p> <p> (2) According to Genesis 36:2 , Genesis 36:4 , Genesis 36:10 , Genesis 36:12 , Genesis 36:16 , the Hittite wife of Esau, daughter of Elon, and mother of Eliphaz. In this chapter Esau's other wives are Oholibamah, a Hivite, and [[Basemath]] the daughter of Ishmael. The names are differently given elsewhere ( Genesis 26:34; Genesis 28:9 ). Basemath is said to be the daughter of Elon. The daughter of [[Ishmael]] is called Mahalath. In place of [[Oholibamah]] the [[Hivite]] we find [[Judith]] the daughter of [[Beeri]] the Hittite.

<p> ("adornment, beauty".). </p> <p> '''1.''' One of Lamech's (See [[Lamech]] ; see [[Zillah]] wives (&nbsp;Genesis 4:19). </p> <p> '''2.''' Daughter of [[Elon]] the Hittite; one of Esau's three wives; mother of his firstborn, Eliphaz; ancestress of six of the [[Edomite]] tribes (&nbsp;Genesis 36:2-4; (&nbsp;Genesis 36:15-16); called '''''Βashemath''''' (&nbsp;Genesis 26:34), ("the fragrant"). Esau's third wife, daughter of Ishmael, also is called Bashemath, but [[Mahalath]] in &nbsp;Genesis 28:9. Moses drew the genealogy from documents of Esau's tribe, without altering them. Eastern and especially [[Arabian]] custom gives surnames (founded on some memorable event in one's life), which gradually supersede the other name; for instance, Edom, &nbsp;Genesis 25:30. Women received new names when married; so both might be called Bashemath. </p>
