Matthew Poole and continuators on Genesis 15:19

19. The Kenites , and the Kenizzites , and the Kadmonites :

Supposed the same with the Midianites, by comparing Exod. 3. 1. with Iudg. 1. 16. See also Numb. 24. 21. 1 Sam. 15. 6.

Thought to be the Idumaeans, who sprung from Kenaz of Esau's race. But this seems not to agree with Deut. 2. 5. where God expresly saith to the Israelites concerning the Idumaeans, I will give you none of their land, &c.

(i. e.) The Eastern people, as the word signifies, elsewhere called the Hivites, Ios. 9. 1. who lived near the Mount Hermon. Ios. 11. 3. which was in the East part of Canaan. See Psal. 89. 12.
