1. Daughter of Ishmael, Esau's wife, Bashemath. (See BASHEMATH.) In Gen_28:9, the narrative, she is called Mahalath; in Gen_36:3-4; Gen_36:10; Gen_36:13; Gen_36:17, the Edomite genealogy, she is called Bashemath. They are two names for the same person, both being described as "daughter of Ishmael, and sister of Nebaioth." But Bashemath, daughter of Eros, is the same as Adah daughter of Elon. So that there were two Bashemaths.
2. One of Rehoboam's 18 wives (2Ch_11:18). Her husband's cousin, daughter of David's son Jerimoth.
3. Title of Psalm 53 and Psalm 88. A poetical enigmatical description of the subject, "upon sickness," namely, man's spiritual malady (Isa_1:5-6). Psalm 53 is an instructive warning (maschil) to the wicked, as Psalm 14 is for the comfort of the righteous when cast down by the prevailing "corruption." The addition Leannoth, from 'anah "to afflict" (compare Psa_14:15), in Psalm 88 expresses "concerning the sickness of affliction," i.e. Israel's disorganization. Praise songs are the comfort of the afflicted. Psalm 88 is the most gloomy throughout of all the psalms, therefore the title (shir) praise song must refer to Psalm 89, which forms the latter part of one whole, of which Psalm 88 is the first part. The maschil or "instruction" is that the afflicted should pour out their grief to God (Jas_5:13). David and the sons of Korah after him delight in such poetical enigmas in titles of psalms. Gesenius and Ludolf derive Mahalath less probably from the Ethiopic machlet, a "harp". Delitzsch explains it as a direction for singing in slow pensive tone, ("moestoso").

Mahalath. (stringed instrument).
1. The daughter of Ishmael, and one of the wives of Esau. Gen_28:9.
2. One of the eighteen wives of King Rehoboam, apparently his first. 2Ch_11:18 only. She was her husband's cousin, being the daughter of King David's son, Jerimoth.
3. The title of Psalms 53, and Mahalath-leannoth, the title of Psalms 88. The meaning of these words is uncertain. The conjecture is that mahalath is a guitar, and that leannoth has reference to the character of the psalm, and might be rendered "to humble or afflict", in which sense the root occurs in Psa_88:7.

ma?ha-lath (מחלת, maḥălath):
(1) In Gen_28:9 the name of a wife of Esau, daughter of Ishmael, and sister of Nebaioth, called in Gen_36:3, BASEMATH (which see). The Samaritan Pentateuch, however, throughout Genesis 36 retains ?Mahalath.? On the other hand, in Gen_26:34 Basemath is said to be ?the daughter of Elon the Hittite,? probably a confusion with Adah, as given in Gen_36:2, or corruption may exist in the lists otherwise.
(2) One of the 18 wives of Rehoboam, a grand-daughter of David (2Ch_11:18).
(3) The word is found in the titles of Psa_53:1-6 (the Revised Version (British and American) ?set to Mahalath?) and Ps 88 (the Revised Version (British and American) ?set to Mahalath Leannoth,? margin ?for singing?). Probably some song or tune is meant, though the word is taken by many to denote a musical instrument. Hengstenberg and others interpret it as indicating the subject of the Psalms. See PSALMS.

Mahalath
(Heb. Machcalath', מִהֲלִת, a lute, otherwise the title of a song) the name of two women. See below.
1. (Sept. Μαελέθ,Vulg. Maheleth.) The daughter of Ishmael, and third wife of Esau (Gen_28:9); elsewhere called BASHEMATH (Gen_36:3); but the Samar. Pent. has Mahalath in both passages. SEE ESAU.
2. (Septuag. Μολάθ v. r. Μοολάθ, Vulg. Malhalath.) The daughter of Jerimoth. granddaughter of David. and wife of Kehoboam (2 Chronicles xi. 18). B.C. 973. She was thus her husband's cousin, being the daughter of king David's son. who was probably the child of a concubine, and not one of his regular family. Josephus, without naming Mahalath, speaks of her as a kinswoman' (συγγενῆ τινα, A nt. 8:10, 1). No children are attributed to the marriage. nor is she again named. The ancient Hebrew text (K-ethib) in this passage has son' instead of daughter.' The latter, however, is the correction of the Keri, and is adopted by the Sept., Vulg, and Targum, as well as by the A. V.
