The Ancestry of Man

The following examples exhibit the format of the genealogical record below:
Abram (>Abraham) = Abram becomes/became Abraham
(ex Adam)- L., “out of,” “from,” or “as a result of;” ref. to ancestry: e.g. Seth (ex Adam); meaning “son of Adam”
Dinah, f.- female progenitor; denoted by f. (female)
Adam:Eve- married (husband’s name, followed by the wife’s name)
[Abram:Sarai]- one in a series of marriages, esp. polygamy (wife’s name follows husband’s)
[Esau:Timna]- concubine (in italics); not a covenant marriage (woman’s name follows man’s)
…Noah- title/address accompanying each name continues after the pattern from the first line in the genealogical entry
(Gn. 1:1)- biblical reference to the birth or blood relationship of the preceding individual to his/her parent(s)
{Gn. 1:1}- biblical reference to the marriage/union (as with concubines) of the preceding couple
[Gn. 1:1]- biblical reference applies to all the preceding information from that entry
{Wife}- no biblical record naming a wife, though one markedly exists/existed
(>Israel)- (underlining) names the nation or people borne out of the preceding name
1. Reuben- ordinals denote birth order of progenitors where relevant
“Hairy”- indicates the English meaning of the preceding name found in Hebrew or Chaldee
sic- L.; ref. to either an error or a contradiction/conflict in the citation noted
(NKR) = no known record of ancestry in existence

There are dual accounts of Esau’s marriage to a woman named Basemath. The first account, identifying Basemath as the daughter to Elon, the Hittite, directly conflicts with the second record, which identifies her as the daughter of
Ishmael, Abraham’s firstborn son.

The Samaritan Pentateuch omits “Chief Korah…” from the genealogy of Eliphaz (Gn. 36:16), while his name is given under the genealogy stemming from Aholibamah, Esau’s wife (Gn. 36:5,18).
