Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerses 29-31 contain the list of Ishmael's sons, twelve in number. The names in the Authorized Version and in the Hebrew text are identical respectively with those in Genesis 25:1.3-15, except that for Hadar there we read Hadad here. In the Septuagint we have Idouma, Choudan, Iettar here, for Douma, Choddan, and Ietur there. At the close of this list in Genesis we have joined on to "these are the sons of Ishmael," the clauses, "and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations. And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people. And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren."
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(29) These are their generations.--Or, their genealogy or register of births. Before a personal name the term Toldoth denotes the "births," i.e., the posterity of the man, and the history of him and his descendants. Before the name of a thing Toldoth signifies origin, beginnings (Genesis 2:4). The Hebrew expression s?fer toldoth answers to the ?????? ??????? of Matthew 1:1. The twelve sons or tribes of Ishmael (1Chronicles 1:29-31) are given first, in an extract from Genesis 25:13-16.Nebaioth.--The Nabateans of Arabia Petraea, and Kedar, the Cedrei of classical writers, are named together, Isaiah 60:7. (Assyrian Naba'ata and Kidra'a reduced by Assurbanipal.) . . .
