Omar

Patriarchs (Abraham–Joseph) Edom · H0201
Old Testament

Omar was a son of Eliphaz and a grandson of Esau, mentioned in the genealogies of Edom.

Omar was a son of Eliphaz, the firstborn son of Esau by his wife Adah, and thus a grandson of Esau and one of the early Edomite tribal chiefs (Genesis 36:11, 15; 1 Chronicles 1:36). He is listed alongside his brothers Teman, Zepho, Gatam, Kenaz, and Amalek as the sons of Eliphaz who became Edomite chieftains. The Temanites, from his brother Teman, were the most prominent of these Edomite clans, later celebrated for their wisdom (Jeremiah 49:7; Obadiah 8).
