Korah

Meaning: baldness; ice; frost · Male · 1 cross reference

This Korah entry refers to an Edomite chief in Genesis 36:16, not to the rebel against Moses or the Judahite figure in 1 Chronicles 2. He belongs to the ruling clans descended from Esau. First appears in Gen 36:16.1

AI summary: This Korah matters because his single cross reference places him among the chiefs through whom Edom's social and political structure is remembered. The entry helps show that neighboring peoples are also traced through named lines and leaders. Taken together, the material presents this Korah as an Edomite chief in Esau's line.1
