ADAH.1. One of the two wives of Lamech, and mother of Jabal and Jubal (Gen_4:19-20). The name possibly means brightness (cf. Arab. [Note: Arabic.] ghadât), Lamechs other wife being named Zillah = shadow, darkness 2. Daughter of Elon, a Hittite, and one of the wives of Esau (Gen_36:2).

("adornment, beauty".).
1. One of Lamech's (See LAMECH; see ZILLAH) wives (Gen_4:19).
2. Daughter of Elon the Hittite; one of Esau's three wives; mother of his firstborn, Eliphaz; ancestress of six of the Edomite tribes (Gen_36:2-4; (Gen_36:15-16); called Bashemath (Gen_26:34), ("the fragrant"). Esau's third wife, daughter of Ishmael, also is called Bashemath, but Mahalath in Gen_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, Gen_25:30. Women received new names when married; so both might be called Bashemath.

ā?da (עדה, ‛ādhāh, ?adornment?):
(1) One of the two wives of Lamech the descendant of Cain (Gen_4:19, Gen_4:20, Gen_4:23). 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 (Ant., I, ii, 2).
(2) According to Gen_36:2, Gen_36:4, Gen_36:10, Gen_36:12, Gen_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 (Gen_26:34; Gen_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. Data are lacking for the solution of the problem.
