(33) Jobab.--The LXX. identify him with Job, but on no probable grounds.

Verse 33. - And Bela died, and Jobab - probably meaning "Desert," or "Shout" (Gesenius); identified with Job (LXX., Augustine, Ambrose) - an opinion which Michaelis declares to be insinis error, nec, historicus solum, sed et grammaticus, Jobab being derived from the root יָבַב (vide' Suppl.,' p. 40); the name of a region of the Joktanite Arabs (Genesis 10:29) - the son of Zerah (who may have been the duke Zerah mentioned in ver. 17, and is here described by the territory over which he ruled as) of Bozrah - "Fort" (Gesenius); afterwards an important city of the Edomites (Isaiah 34:6; Isaiah 63:1; Jeremiah 49:13); still to be traced in El-Busaireh, a village and castle in Arabia Petraea, about twenty-five miles south by east of the Dead Sea (Robinson, vol. 2. pp. 570, 571; Gesenius, 'Lex.,' p. 135; Porter in Kitto's 'Cyclopedia') - reigned in his stead - literally, under him, i.e. in succession to him.
